Upcoming free workshops and webinars
WEBINAR – Building Confidence 26 Mar, 2021
In this webinar, we will share tips and techniques to help you gain and maintain confidence through the vicissitudes of your freelance career.
How to create promo videos for social media – 24 March
This workshop will help you make snappy, animated promo videos that help grab attention and promote your creative work online.
Build new revenue streams – 16th March
In this workshop, we aim to help you identify new ways to utilise your unique experience and expertise to develop new revenue streams.
Blogging for creative freelances – 10th March
Everybody tells you that you must have a website and you must have a blog but nobody tells you how – or why. In this workshop you will learn the key steps to creating your blog but, more importantly, what you can use one for and how it will become an important part of your creative work.
Write that book and get it published – 2nd March
Both writing and then getting a book published can be incredibly challenging. However, thousands of people do so every year, so why not you? To help you, this workshop aims to give you a realistic idea of how to go about writing your first book, and how and where to sell it.
How to run a crowd funding campaign – 26th Feb
Crowdfunding campaigns can be effective in raising money for creative projects. However, if you suspect that there’s more to it than just putting your great idea online and waiting for the money to roll in, you’re right.
We’ll spend the day working through how to structure your own crowdfunding campaign, from how to choose a platform and set a realistic target to how to find your audiences and tell your story.
Case Studies - how we can help
Test yourself in English, Maths and ICT with a set of short quizzes devised by unionlearn (run by the TUC)
to help you to assess your skills level in these essential areas and consider where you might want to improve.
What can we do for you?
The Getting Down to Business programme helps freelances throughout England brush up on key business skills.
Whether it's through free training courses or providing freelance-focused information, there's plenty of support for our members both on and offline.
Digital Learning Centre
At FEU Training we’re aiming to improve your access to learning through our Digital Learning Centre.
With a range of e-learning opportunities from downloads to video tutorials, presented in short, bite-sized pieces, you can snack on knowledge whenever you have a spare 10 minutes.
