Course Details:How to Buy & Sell Antiques and
Collectibles Successfully.
This extremely comprehensive course has one basic
objective - to teach you how to successfully buy and sell
antiques no matter where you live. In simple, step-by-step
points you are shown how to save money when you buy and,
even more important, how to make a profit when you sell.
You are taught the tricks of the trade and are given
advice on how to avoid the most common mistakes made by new
dealers.
The course is divided into six main sections:
- Deciding the type of antique dealer you are going to
be.
- Locating antiques to buy.
- Where to sell your antiques.
- Examining the Internet.
- What to sell.
- Business Basics
The key to selling successfully is to buy successfully.
Exploring traditional and non-traditional approaches in both
areas is discussed in detail.
Whether you're buying antiques for pleasure, as an
investment or for profit, you'll find this course inspiring
and invaluable. It's simply packed with information and
advice that only an experienced antiques trader could give
you.
Your own personally appointed tutor will provide you with
expert guidance and tuition throughout your studies.

- Are you a manipulative person?
- Are you a real friend when the going gets rough?
- How popular are you?
- Could you be your own boss?
- What's your leadership potential?

Management/Leadership Skills Test All students of this course have the option to take a
Management/Leadership Test for an additional cost of €50.00.
This test is conducted on our behalf by Verax international.
This test has to be taken on line and the results will be
sent directly to each student by email usually within 3/4
working days.
We urge you to complete this test as it will provide you
with invaluable help and guidance in enabling you to get the
most out for your learning. The assessment sent to you when
you complete the test will not count in any way to your
eventual qualification. It is intended to enable you to
understand your strengths and weaknesses and so concentrate
on those parts of the course that are most valuable to you.
You may think that you are already aware of these. However,
systematic research shows that just over half the population
are unaware of their real strengths, let alone their real
weaknesses.
This test provides you with a systematic way of assuring
these for yourself. Answer honestly. There are no right or
wrong answers. Only you will see the results.
The test will allow you to assess your own performance
against 16 key management/leader competencies - such as
customer focus, decision making, creativity and team working
- which are valued by employers and which are very important
for effective performance as a manager or team leader. There
is one test for managers in the public sector and a separate
test for all other managers. Depending on which version
chosen, your performance is benchmarked either against
15,000 or so managers in the database or against public
sector managers only. In summary, this unique test will show you what to stop
doing (or do less of) and what to start doing (or do more
of) in order to become more effective in your current
role/activity. In effect, you are told what you need to do
to become a more effective manager and team leader and most
important of all, how to do it. Good luck with
your studies. Back to Career
