Self Help Training and Seminar Business - Forex Trading

This post is about learning how to trade in the Forex market.  A profitable home-based business venture you can try.  Aside from learning about the Forex market, we'd like you to take a look at these two trainers and consider the potential of the Self-Help training and seminar business.


A lot of people would refer to trading in the Foreign Exchange (FOREX) Market as committing financial suicide.  The market moves so fast that you could lose millions in an instant.  However, educating yourself with the right information and understanding how the market works will help you avoid this.  This is according to Mario Singh, a forex trader from Singapore, probably Asia's most well-known Forex trader.  If you want to learn the basics of Forex trading, below are 5 videos about the Basics of Forex Trading.

Commercial Breadmaking and Bakery Management Seminar






Learn how to make all these breads and more!  

The Technology and Resource Center (TRC) of DOST offers Livelihood training courses every month.  They offer a wide variety of courses.  The training seminars range from agricultural products to digital photography!


I was interested in the course Commercial Breadmaking and Bakery Management and so I took the course last April.  For a fee of 4,169 pesos, over 4 days, I was able to learn how to prepare and bake bread, from the most common pandesal to the classy cinammon roll.  The fee already covers the seminar hand-outs and the ingredients.  I tell you, it was worth all the money.  Not only will you learn how to make these breads but also they will teach you about costing and bakery shop layout.  After the seminar, I'd say you'll be around 70% ready to start your own bakery business.  The only complaint my batch had was the not so clean workshop room.  Compared to all other baking courses I've joined, this offered the most value for money.




If you are interested in joining the seminar, you can contact Mr. Raul Durante of TRC.  His contact information is given below.
