Looking to improve your skills and knowledge in key business areas? At the Federation of Small Businesses, we’re hosting eight interactive workshops with small business experts. Chosen by our members, each two-hour session an industry expert will take you through practical advice, support and business advice. You will come away from each workshop with at least 10 tangible things you can do to move your business forward.
Open to all, each session is £40, but FSB members get 50% off (£20). Places are limited to only 25 per session to ensure you can get the most from the workshop, so don’t miss out!
As numbers are limited, we ask that only one person attends for each place to ensure everyone can have an opportunity to speak.
