Low cost start up; structured training modules and help in planning your finances. The College of Will Writing through its association with the Society of Will Writers the UK’s No 1 trade body representing the Will Writer has financial plans to help everyone.

Will Writing is a para-legal service and as such must be approached properly and seriously, but the College courses make it not only affordable but easy and fun – whilst all the time the aim is to “Earn while you Learn” through our carefully constructed modular courses.

The College of Will Writing has been giving training and support to the Will Writing profession for over fourteen years and the courses and tutors are all drawn from the very best the legal and financial sector have to offer. The majority of tutors are STEP qualified – all examination papers are independently marked to ensure equality and residential courses are run on a monthly basis and home-study courses are simply on application.

What is the market?

A recent survey carried out by the National Consumer Council shows that 27,000,000 people do not have a Will, approx 64% of adults.

What next?

An ideal program would be to attend the two day introduction course at Lincoln, following this you will sit an open-book exam at a date and time of your choosing.

Once you have successfully passed the exam, a period of developing your business and your ‘instruction taking’ skills is recommended before applying for the one day ‘Advanced Instruction Course’ and then after another period of personal development enjoy a day in the company of Remi on her ‘Practical Will Drafting Seminar’ developing further your knowledge of tax an the use of trusts within Wills.

As most people will want to eventually draft their own Wills, there is also a one day course ‘Drafting for Success’ which is based around the Society’s leading software Sure Will Writer. Sure Will Writer is the most powerful but user friendly software on the market today, Sure Will contains over 3000 questions and 1000 precedents. You will be able to create a simple Will for a single person to a Will of someone who is worth millions owning a business empire all from the same software with the same ease of use.

If the two day course is not practical, then consider the correspondence method of learning. Text book, course notes and on-line tutor are all included in the Certificate Course.

Soon to be added to the list of courses available is the Foundation Course, course notes and tutors are supplied, but you will be required to source text books from a list provided and then to write a paper on one of a choice of subjects for each of the six sections. Full online support is also provided.

The Society with the College is planning a range of one and half day courses and seminars to begin later this year, the first set of speakers and lecturers have already been selected and have accepted our invitations to talk. Once suitable venues and dates have been agreed we can then launch – so watch this space.
