Regarding your time commitment, most of this work can be completed in your own time provided you can meet our deadlines. However, successful applicants will be invited to attend a mandatory half-day writing training course. This will be held at a time convenient to you.
Following successful completion of the training, work would be commissioned in the following weeks. The writer will also need to attend one full-day meeting to evaluate the assessment content.
