INCONET.com (The Independent Consultants Network) has just launched a free and confidential on-line service to help training managers find out whether the freelance life is right for them.

INCONET.com offers everything a freelancer needs for an entire solo career: top level project work, training, coaching and free information.

Its Assessment Centre takes people through a series of questionnaires - testing everything from their business instincts to their organisational skills and marketing know-how. Practical quizzes are used to highlight vital elements of setting up a business, from taking out the right insurance to joining the right professional associations.

The Assessment Centre has three stages:
An entreneurial assessment, a skills audit and a practial questionnaire.

Founder of INCONET.com, Renee Binyon, says: "Our assessments are designed to be thought-provoking and the questions asked address the critical success factors for freelancing."

Trainers wanting to find out more should log on to www.inconet.com.
