As a union for freelancers, one of the supports that CMG Freelance offers is professional development opportunities.
In addition to in-person training opportunities, we’ve also run almost two dozen webinars over the past few years on subjects ranging from social media for freelancers, to financial planning, to pitching stories, to negotiating contracts.
For the past couple of years, we’ve been inviting anyone who is interested to participate in our webinars live. But one of the benefits of membership in CMG Freelance is the ability to watch archived webinars in the members section of our website.
We’ve updated that page with a few new webinars recently.
The most recent webinar is “State Your Worth” with negotiation and compensation professional Annika Reinhardt, the founder of Talent Collective. We’ve also just posted a webinar with lawyer Mark Donald, who offers legal advice for journalists on defamation, privacy concerns and reporting in conflict zones.
If you’re a member, take a few minutes to browse through the list and take advantage of this training resource. If you’re not yet a CMG Freelance member, you can find more information about the cost and benefits of membership in the union right here.
