Kickstart Your Freelance Business the Right Way (Live Virtual Classroom)
The job market is going through a major shakeup.
Hiring freelancers has become more attractive to businesses. There is a big possibility that jobs on temporary hold may be replaced by contractors and freelancers in the long-term.

The course is also relevant to anyone who wants to start a side business to earn extra income. The course will walk you through the important steps you need to take to start a service or product business with zero or small capital.

There will be no business or technical jargons here! Just plain and straight to the point lectures, examples, and hands-on exercises to learn faster in a short period of time.
