BACK TO WORK AND BUSINESS START-UP TRAINING PROGRAMMES

We give mums the training, inspiration and confidence they need to get back into work, change direction or start their own businesses. We’ve already helped thousands of women achieve flexible careers that fit around their family lives.

Our friendly and professional courses can help you create a top-notch CV, refresh your interview techniques and hone your personal brand. By focusing on your skills, goals and confidence, we aim to get you truly “work ready”. We can even connect you with flexible employers.

If you dream of being your own boss, our business training can turn your ideas into reality. From cash flow and customers, to mentors and social media, it’s bursting with practical advice and support.

Starting a new chapter in your life can seem daunting – but it doesn’t have to be. As a mum, you’ve already gained so many skills that will help you on your way. Let us help you with the rest.
