Assessors Online is a new national business network specifically for independent recruiters and assessors. Launched at the CIPD in October, Assessors Online arranges network events, training courses and information seminars as well as the opportunity for members to promote their own business, all targeted at independent associates.
Director Virginia Begg said.í After the initial euphoria of the first contract, freelancers and small businesses face the harsh reality of running a business and building a pipeline. This can come as a shock especially to those whose main source of revenue is through agencies and suddenly work dries up. It can get very lonely and frustrating on your own, particularly in the current climate. We offer a forum to meet like-minded people in broadly the same market place, who understand and empathise with the issues of being independent ñ like the phone not ringing!
She added ëCollaborative working is very important in this market. Our members include NVQ assessors, trainers and psychologists as well as recruiters and weíve already had several new partnerships formed as a result of contacts made in the network.í
Membership costs 20 a year and all details are on our website
