Built for Beginners. Designed for Action.
Contractor Accelerator is a comprehensive 4-week programme designed to take you from employed professional to landing your first contract.
Through self-paced video lessons, practical exercises and downloadable business tools, you’ll build everything you need to confidently pursue your first contract – from your strategy and market profile to your business systems and execution plan.
What is it?
Contractor Accelerator is a comprehensive 4-week programme that helps skilled professionals move from employment towards landing their first contract with a clear strategy, strong market positioning, a contractor-ready profile, practical business systems and a proven approach to finding opportunities.
Who is it for?
It is for skilled professionals who are new to contracting and want a clear, practical roadmap to landing their first contract instead of trying to figure everything out alone.
Where does it happen?
The programme is delivered entirely online, giving you immediate access to self-paced video lessons, practical worksheets, downloadable templates and business tools you can work through from anywhere, on your own schedule.
How does it work?
Each week, you’ll watch the video lessons, complete the practical exercises and use the downloadable tools to build every part of your contracting journey – from your strategy and market positioning to your business setup and first contract search.
When does it start?
There are no fixed start dates. Once you enrol, you’ll receive immediate access to the full programme and can begin whenever you’re ready.
Why does it exist?
Most professionals already have valuable experience, but they do not know how to position it, price themselves, set up and operate professionally, or navigate the contract market. Contractor Accelerator exists to give them a clear, practical system for making that transition with confidence.
Here’s how it works
Contractor Accelerator is designed to take the guesswork out of moving into contracting.
Instead of piecing together conflicting advice online and trying to manage every decision alone, you follow a clear 4-week process to build your strategy, position yourself for the market, set up professionally and pursue your first contract.
1. Step-by-Step Process
Each week focuses on a different stage of your contracting journey—from building your strategy and professional profile to setting up your business, finding opportunities and preparing to land your first contract.
2. Self-Paced Video Modules
Each week includes a series of self-paced video lessons that guide you through every stage of the programme, allowing you to learn and progress at your own pace.
3. Practical Tools & Templates
You’ll receive practical worksheets, templates and business tools to help you implement what you learn, including CV templates, opportunity trackers, invoice templates, timesheets, checklists and business systems.
4. Built for Real-World Application
Every lesson is designed to be applied directly to your own career, helping you build your strategy, business systems and contract search as you progress through the programme.
