eBay University 2006
EBay have just announced the dates for their next 3 eBay University events.
This weekend there is an event in Bristol which is a “Beyond Basics “ course. There will also be a similar day held in Manchester on the 18th February. In March both a “Beyond Basics” and a “Top Sellers Course” on 11th March in Central London.
This year they are offering two different courses, “Beyond Basics” and a “Top Sellers Course”. The Bristol and Manchester events will both be “Beyond Basics” while the London event will be offering both courses. There will be further eBay University events at these and other venues during the coming year.
The Top Seller University is a two stream course aimed at serious eBay sellers. Attendees can choose from two different classes that run concurrently. The first stream is presented in association with the Institute of Business Advisors (IBA) and offers delegates the opportunity to gain the foundation of knowledge required to turn your eBay trading into the beginnings of a fully fledged business, covering diverse business subjects such as taking your first steps in business, Tax and VAT and writing your first business plan.
The first course is called 'Beyond the Basics' and is aimed at those who have mastered the 'basics' of selling and would like to move their eBay selling onto the next level.
The course consists of three basic modules; marketing, scaling and managing your sales on eBay. The second stream is entitled 'Advanced eBay Skills' and offers delegates the opportunity to learn about eBay specific topics and skills in greater depth. Our experts will cover a diverse range of subjects aimed at taking your eBaying to the next level. Topics will include search and email marketing; Maximising the opportunity of your eBay shop and PayPal. In addition you can hear from third party tool providers, such as MarketWorks and Channel Advisor, to allow you to judge how their products maybe able to help you develop your sales.
Delegate attending the Top Seller university can move freely between the Business Skills and Advanced eBay streams - picking the classes they wish to attend. Taking place in smaller groups than the Beyond the Basics course, delegates should also be able to benefit from greater interaction between delegates and the tutor alike.
Delegates attending the Beyond the Basics course cannot move between the two courses if offered at the same location. For more details and to book for any of these events visit
