Workshop Descriptions:

build a financial plan to help you manage your money, reduce stress, and have a little
fun!
Becoming Bank Savvy: Choosing a bank and bank account can be easy if you understand your choices. What
are the differences between checking and saving accounts? Money market accounts? Certificates
of deposit? This workshop will help you choose a bank and accounts that are right
for you.
Understanding Your Paycheck: Do you wonder how taxes, health insurance, and retirement savings affect your take-home
pay or how your status as self-employed or an employee impacts your earnings? This
workshop will help you understand paycheck deductions and the financial implications

stress. This debt can linger for years if not properly managed. Understand how student
loans can work for you and how to avoid some of the most common pitfalls.

us to understand how to choose a health insurance plan, a retirement plan, and investments
for retirement.

workshop will help you learn about stocks, bonds, mutual funds, and ETFs and how to
