About this event

Financial Wellbeing: Personal and Professional Budget Making

Financial Literacy

In-Person Workshop: Henry F. Hall Building, SSC Workshop Room – H-771


If you ever feel like your finances are controlling you, instead of you controlling your finances, then this workshop series is for you.

Join our newest two-part financial literacy offering to build your self-reflexive understanding of your personal finances, identify knowledge gaps, and learn techniques to manage your finances to go from anxiety to action.

Part 2 of Financial Wellbeing is about building confidence, resilience, and analytic skills when making decisions around money. You will learn how you can inspect a financial situation over time to extract insights and make data-informed decisions. Together we will map out how to build your capacity for resilience in the face of change. This knowledge can be applied to personal finances and managing a project or team’s budget!

All levels of personal finance knowledge are welcome. We encourage students to register and attend Part 1 in advance. Please bring your spreadsheets from last session!

Facilitator: Zaccary Dyck, District 3 Innovation

Are workshops offered online or in-person?

FutureBound workshops are a mix of online and in-person offerings. The location (either a classroom or zoom link) will be noted on the Eventbrite page and sent to you via email. We do not record any of our workshops, but we do send follow-up resources to students who attend.

How does the certification work? When will I get it?

By completing 4 workshops per core skill module, you earn a module certificate. Certificates can be showcased on your LinkedIn, your CV, or your Concordia Co-Curricular Record. PDF certificates are sent via email to eligible students at the end of each academic semester - no need to apply.

Is there any form of assessment?

We ask you to submit a reflection form after each workshop and if you complete a core skill module so that you reflect on the impact of your experiences and confidently articulate your skills to various audiences. This is an essential task to earn a certificate and helps us continue to improve!
