All written work should be proofread to give it that final polish and professional edge. Businesses, publishers, writers and students are just a few of the people who could be your customers if you learn to proofread to a high standard.
In just a few short months our home-study Continuing Professional Development (CPD) Certificate course—with expert personal tuition—teaches you how to proofread and copy edit to a professional level. You’ll brush up on your punctuation, spelling and grammar, learn what to look out for and how to mark up on paper and screen.
You can use your new skills to proofread your own work, in your current job, or add them to your résumé to help you find a new position or gain promotion. But that’s not all. You also learn how to set up as a freelancer and how to find customers so you can work at home for an extra or full-time income potentially earning 25 per hour. Once you have the skills the choice is yours.
The course is ideal for beginners or to use as a refresher. 15-day trial. Request your free course introduction, with no obligation to enroll. Call or click now!

I will never forget that at the age of 12 I was asked to deliver a speech entitled An Unforgettable Experience before the whole class! How terrible shy I was the moment I thought of that. I had no choice but prepare for it, though. First, I drafted the speech, which was easy. But the hardest part lies in my oral presentation. The real moment began as I stood on the platform with my legs trembled and my mind blank. But my listener were waiting patiently. Gradually I found myself back, giving out my speech fluently. After which seemed to be ages, I found my audience applauding. I made it! From then on, my fear disappeared. Actually with your confidence building up, I now turn out to be the great speaker. Looking at back, I know the greatest difficulty on the way to success is fear. Overcome it, or you will be able to achieve your goals.
