Establishing a Professional Practice

Building a private practice involves much more than opening your doors and beginning to see clients. It requires professionals to make a series of interconnected decisions about business structure, regulatory responsibilities, finances, policies, systems, risk, and the day-to-day operation of the practice. Establishing a Professional Practice provides an in-depth guide to building these foundations thoughtfully. Designed in Canada for professionals practising in Canada, the course helps you understand what needs to be considered, how the different parts of a practice affect one another, and how to make decisions that are appropriate for your profession, circumstances, and long-term goals. Rather than offering a generic checklist or a single model of practice ownership, the course guides you through the reasoning involved in establishing a practice that is professionally sound, ethically responsible, financially informed, and sustainable to operate.
