Testimonial

Monica Richards – London

The course has definitely given me the confidence to take my hobby to the next level.

I was a bit apprehensive about doing this course online but I needn’t have worried. I was able to work through the modules at my own pace.

The course material was easy to understand and had some really useful and practical information and advice such as choosing a name for your business and the pitfalls of working from home.

I’m really, really glad I did this course as I am a home baker and it has provided lots of useful knowledge and tips to take my business forward. The course has definitely given me the confidence to take my hobby to the next level.

Thank you
