A good credit score saves you money by opening the door to cheaper loans, better credit card offers, and greater job and housing opportunities. Fortunately, a credit score doesn’t depend on how much money you have; it only depends on your ability to follow some basic rules.

In this workshop, you can learn:

  • The formula to increase your credit score,
  • How to read a credit report, and
  • How to start working one-on-one with a Financial Coach!
