Research shows that 91% of British adults have never received lessons at school on basic financial management such as budgeting. If this means that you sometimes struggle when it comes to managing your money, this course is an ideal place to start building new skills.
This course helps you to develop your money skills by exploring the money issues faced by real people in everyday situations. The course follows the residents of Cash Crescent and is packed with practical advice and useful information to help you make your money go further. You'll learn how to choose the right bank account, how to set up a savings plan, how to borrow money sensibly and how to deal with debt.
By completing this course you'll be working towards the Certificate in Adult Numeracy. This nationally-recognised qualification is equivalent to a GCSE, and will show employers that you have the maths skills they're looking for.
It'll really boost your CV, and could help you get ahead at work.
