Course schedule
One Weekend
Self-Paced Modules
Dependent on dianostic survey results
Because a large component of the class is discussion-based, our modules help you close knowledge gaps to get the most out of the session, covering key terms and concepts central to the next learning lab.
Interactive Learning Labs
2 hours per session
Transform your mindset from "How do I?" to "How can I?" through intimate group learning, real and raw discussions, and applied case studies. Maintain momentum around your weekly financial actions and behaviors through building accountability within your group.
Step-by-Step Action Guides
1 hour in between sessions
Put your learnings into practice immediately through completing pre-built, customizable templates that require you to take actions that incrementally improve your financial situation. Then, enhance your approach through reviewing with your group in the next class session.
Frequently Asked Questions
