About this Event

*Please note: this event is open to members of the University of Cambridge only.

Are you considering becoming a consultant? Perhaps you are already consulting, but want to find out how to work more effectively, get the best price for your skills or discover how to simplify your administrative work.

Cambridge Enterprise is delighted to offer a half-day training course to academics and researchers of the University. We will share expertise on best practices, tips on making life easier and troubleshoot some of the key issues consultants encounter.

What the workshop covers:

The benefits and impact of undertaking consultancy work.
Key issues surrounding confidentiality, intellectual property and liability.
A panel of consultants from the University sharing their experience, followed by a Q&A session.
A networking lunch with Cambridge Enterprise trainers and panel speakers.
