Trainer Talk Local East Midlands

If you're a freelance trainer in the East Midlands area come and join us for a morning of business and self development at our Trainer Talk Local event.

This event is run by our East Midlands Local Leader, Karen Cureton.

What Is

is a membership community for freelance trainers, a one-stop shop for business growth. We attract trainers who are serious about growing their business with the support of like minded people who are usually experiencing the same challenges! Freelance training can be lonely. It needn't be!

Trainer Talk Locals are fun, friendly, collaborative and inspiring events which we run at various locations across the UK.

A Local is a great opportunity to:

• Connect with other freelance trainers in your area

• Discuss your business challenges - and get solutions from people who understand!

• Learn something new which will help you get more clients or improve your delivery skills

• Get access to opportunities

• Get help and support to grow your business

Our attendees love spending time with people who “get” what they do, the challenges, the excitement and the struggles. Being in a safe place to share ideas and help problem solve has been a big motivator to come again.

Open to Both Members and Non-Members

If you're not already a member of Trainer Talk, this is also a great way to get a taster of our vibrant and supportive community - of which we are very proud!
