FEU Training held two busy workshops 'Managing Your Business' on the July 23 and another on August 6 to cater for demand aimed at giving freelance creatives further training in relevant business skills. Following on from last year's highly successful
Make Impact and Maintain Momentum workshops, the sessions were held at the NUJ main offices in London and covered 'Time Management' and 'Getting Deeper into Social Media' using Facebook and Twitter.
