Become a Consultant Course Kickstarts Career Fitness

January 7th, 2009

Vancouver, BC — 6 January 2009 — Become a consultant and ramp up career fitness for the New Year. January tends to be the month people kick their fitness into high gear, but it’s also an opportunity for people to revamp their career and business fitness. Consultant Journal, the leading online resource for real people interested in surviving and thriving as independent consultants, launched a self-study course today. The new course, “Become a Consultant: How to Make the Leap”, mentors people through the journey towards becoming an independent consultant.

“With the economy the way it is, people are looking to start businesses. Consulting can be a lucrative full- or part-time business with little in the way of start-up costs,” says Andréa Coutu, managing director of Consultant Journal. “But most consultants are experts in the work they do – not in starting and running a consulting business. So this course serves to mentor people through consulting business start up.” The course, which combines text, audio, exercises and discussion forums, aims to meet a variety of learning styles.

Consultant Journal has previously seen keen interest in its electronic resources on setting consulting fees and discovering your inner consultant. This course bundles those materials with a full course that also includes 2.5 hours of audio, written lessons, exercises, discussion forums and a personal review of each student’s marketing plan. Founder Andréa Coutu draws from years of experience as a marketing consultant. “I decided to include a free review of marketing plans for people who take the course, because I want them to be as successful as possible,” she explains.

For charter members, the Become a Consultant: How to Make the Leap course will be available for $345. For more information, visit http://www.consultantjournal.com/become-a-consultant-course.
