PROVIDING businesses with the opportunity to upskill and access the latest information is an important part of what the Toowoomba Chamber of Commerce offers its membership.

Workshops and forums are held throughout the year giving local businesses the chance to access this training right here in Toowoomba.

Service providers from accountants and lawyers through to HR professional and insurance providers are an important part of every business and can be valuable partners in helping you to ensure your business is successful, sustainable and profitable.

The Toowoomba Chamber of Commerce will be holding a "Get the most out of your Provider" lunchtime series to help businesses know what to ask their service providers, what to expect and how to maximise this relationship to maximise benefit to their business.

We are kicking off with "Know your Accountant" this Thursday with the assistance of Power Tynan.

Further information can be found on our website so take advantage of this opportunity and book your ticket today.

Chamber sponsor, Enterprise Legal, is also holding a workshop in August focusing on payroll tax.

Enterprise Legal will share advice and insights into this complex area of law giving businesses the opportunity to re-consider everything they thought they knew about payroll tax.

For further information on these workshops or what else is coming up, get in touch with the Toowoomba Chamber of Commerce now and make the most of these local upskilling opportunities for your business.

Remember - applications for the 2018 Heritage Bank Business Excellence Awards are now open. So make sure you get in early and start preparing your application.
