Training Courses
Training opportunities coming soon
Following our recent series of training courses and workshops, FEU Training is currently developing a new course programme focusing on the key business skills that aim to help support freelances in their career development.
Look out for updates
Keep an eye out for new opportunities to be launched in the next few months. You’ll receive information on the new course programme directly from FEU Training and also from your union – either Equity, the Musicians’ Union, the National Union of Journalists or the Writers’ Guild of Great Britain.
Courses on demand
We have recently run a range of courses (see below) throughout England for just £25. We can set up these again if there is sufficient demand. So, if you would like to attend one or more of the following courses in your area, please register your interest at info@feutraining.org.
Popular courses that we are thinking of running later in the year include :
