Course Basics
This course is designed to help you understand your first steps in self employment.
We have tried to cover most of the elements necessary for you to make a success of your business as a sole trader; from set-up to future growth.
The course includes some useful sections on the construction trades, working from home, allowances and tax, and will give you great start-up hints and tips to get you up and running in no time.
To start with, the first lesson will cover the other structures you might consider – just in case you’re not sure and have come straight to this course and not completed our introductory ‘starting a business’ course.
Unless you already have a business and want some of the hints and tips, I’d strongly recommend doing the ‘starting a business’ course before doing this course. Also;
- If you’re considering, even remotely, a Limited Company or a Partnership construct then complete the Starting Your Business course first.
- Do the Business Planning Course before you commit to your business start-up. Time spent in planning is seldom wasted!
