Many of you will have worked your way through the 10 modules contained in the course (although this is not a prerequisite for attending the session as you have access to the course materials for 12 months).

If you get this pitch ready within 12 months of the course start date Cathie will review it for you and provide guidance on how to get it into its best possible shape.You’ll receive personalised feedback from:
