How Lotus can Help You

Our focus is to help you gain the confidence and skills you need to work for yourself, in a career that is both stimulating and allows you to maintain a balanced lifestyle. As women, we want or need to work, but also want to spend as much time as possible caring for our own children. At Lotus, we believe that all women can achieve success in businesses that gel well with family and personal commitments. We want to work with you so that you can achieve your goal of a perfect work/life balance.

So, how can Lotus help you?

Inspiration

We'll inspire you to change your career and life for the better by choosing to work mainly from home, in a business that's interesting and meaningful to you. One thing we're known for is our enthusiasm. We challenge anyone not to have that enthusiasm rub off on them!

Encouragement

We believe in you, we really do. If you've come this far then you've already made a big step (might we even say a giant leap!) towards a life where you're in control. You DO have what it takes to fulfil your desires, and we can't stress that enough.

Decision

Many of you will feel that deciding on a new career path is a daunting prospect. We're here to help you explore the possibilities and make a confident decision about the type of venture that will fit best with your lifestyle and goals for the future.

Invest in Yourself

When you decide to retrain for a new career you are making an investment in YOU. We want to help you get the best return on your investment.

Learning

Our distance learning courses cover a wide range of subjects, all with the ultimate goal of providing you with a stepping-stone to a rewarding new career. The nature of home study courses with Lotus means you can fit your studies around your other commitments, gaining a recognised qualification in your own time, at your own pace.

Study Support

You won't be alone. We'll be here to help keep you on track when you need us to. If you ever feel you're losing your focus and need help to get yourself motivated, please, please let us know. Sometimes all you need is a little coaching to help you keep the bigger picture in sight. You'll also be assigned an experienced personal tutor who'll be committed to your success.

Business Support

You've finished your course(s) and now you're ready to start your business. "But where do I start?" we hear you say. Starting a business is an exciting journey, with ups and downs and much to learn. You'll be introduced to a mentor with experience setting up a business from home. They'll act as a sounding board and guide, helping you find the right solutions for yourself. You'll have the opportunity to discuss all aspects of business, from defining your goals right through to your first tax return. We want you to succeed, and having a mentor will help you keep focused.

Togetherness

Our goal is to create a support network for women setting up in business. Through Lotus you'll be able to meet like-minded individuals, discuss common issues and share the ups and downs of your success.
