NMT is offering practical online workshops to help you with you the skills you need to set up on your own. 
These two hour online (via the Teams platform) workshops are designed for those with a trade background in the construction industry.
The workshops are scheduled from 4 - 6pm and will provide the  basics in areas like business set-up, registering for GST, accounting and tax, bookkeeping, marketing, navigating contracts and using relevant technology.  You can do all three or just focus on the one you need most support with.

You'll gain advice on where to find information about public liability, personal accident insurance, worker's compensation and cover aspects of on-the-job Work Health and Safety (WHS) and relevant legislation.
You'll also look at how to write and interpret contracts and what to consider when it comes to intellectual property including patents, trademarks and copyright.
