Questions arise such as: How do I manage my business, how and where do I find contracts, what type of savings\/retirement plan should I consider, do I need insurance, and who can I ask for help? This web seminar will address those questions as well as take you through the necessary steps to determine if becoming an independent contractor is right for you, or, if you are already an independent consultant, how you can manage your business more efficiently and with more stability. Some key business structures such as sole proprietorships, C-Corporations, S-Corporations, and LLCs, and the advantages\/disadvantages of each, will also be addressed. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg title=\"Learning Objectives\" alt=\"Learning Objectives\" src=\"https:\/\/stage.barnettinternational.com\/uploadedImages\/Barnett_Educational_Services\/images\/Web_Seminars\/LearningObjectives.jpg?n=4499\" border=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"Abstract\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescribe the key criteria for being a successful independent consultant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplain the types of business structures that should be considered and the pros\/cons of each\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescribe how to find contracts and maintain a steady workload\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg title=\"Who Should Attend\" alt=\"Who Should Attend\" src=\"https:\/\/stage.barnettinternational.com\/uploadedImages\/Barnett_Educational_Services\/images\/Web_Seminars\/WhoShouldAttend.jpg?n=7655\" border=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"Abstract\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThose considering becoming an independent Clinical Research Associate or consultant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndependent contractors looking to further stabilize and develop their business\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg title=\"Instructor\" alt=\"Instructor\" src=\"https:\/\/stage.barnettinternational.com\/uploadedImages\/Barnett_Educational_Services\/images\/Web_Seminars\/Instructor.jpg?n=9798\" border=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"Abstract\"\u003eNikki Christison, B.S.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"Abstract\"\u003e\u003ca title=\"Click here for complete trainer biographies\" href=\"https:\/\/stage.barnettinternational.com\/instructor-biographies\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cfont color=\"#800080\"\u003eClick here for complete trainer biographies\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"Abstract\"\u003e\u003cimg title=\"Registration Fees\" alt=\"Registration Fees\" src=\"https:\/\/stage.barnettinternational.com\/uploadedImages\/Barnett_Educational_Services\/images\/Web_Seminars\/RegistrationFees.jpg?n=5717\" border=\"0\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"Abstract\"\u003e$695\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"Abstract\"\u003eIncludes up to 20 participants at one site.
