VRA Webinar: Working as an independent vocational rehabilitation practitioner

In our November 2021 CPD webinar we looked at:

• The pros and cons of working as an independent vocational rehabilitation practitioner
• Sourcing work
• Types of work
• Setting up as a self-employed practitioner
• Potential earnings

This session addressed the issues to consider for those who are new to, or who are thinking of taking the leap, into independent practice.  It is also relevant for those who are concerned about IR35.
