Consulting 101

Learn what consulting really takes.Experts share their hard-won insights.

Are you thinking about becoming a consultant?

Or are you relatively new to the consulting world and still trying to figure things out?

You know that you would like to leverage your expertise, have some control over your schedule and take on the projects you like—but maybe you don’t know how to really make all that happen.

We can help.

The WICademy Consulting 101 course, part of our Consulting Foundations, can help you launch your own consulting business with confidence, and enhance the business you have already started.

The course,  led by experienced consultants who have been where you are, will take you on a seven-week journey from “not knowing where to start” to taking on your first client.

Here’s how it works.

Talks led by industry experts cover information you need to be successful, like how to define your market, select a business entity, and deal with contracts and finances.

With each lesson, you will complete an assignment about one area of your new business. If you participate fully in this course, you will emerge with an actionable plan for starting your business.

Key Takeaways:

  • Define your offering
  • Identify your market
  • Brand and market your consulting practice
  • Select the “right” business entity
  • Manage your finances, technology and other services needed for success

Requirements

There are no prerequisites but, to get the most out of the course, you need to commit for the entire series and do the assignments.
