Understanding your Credit- Virtual

Virtual Understanding Your Credit Workshop (Families & Students) is an interactive online session designed to help students and their families build a shared understanding of credit and financial responsibility. Through guided activities, real-life examples, and open discussion, participants learn what credit is, how credit scores work, and how everyday financial decisions impact future opportunities. The workshop encourages families and students to learn side by side, ask questions, and talk openly about financial goals and habits. This virtual format creates a safe, supportive space for learning together and strengthening financial confidence for the future.
