There are so many things to learn and know about dealing with money. It is helpful to have factual, relevant, clearly communicated information to help make informed decisions and not rely solely on emotions and information that may or may not be accurate.

Prosper Canada has put together a free online, self-directed course that helps people take a look at their financial situation.

Making the most of your money is the name of the course.

There are three modules to explore:

• Module 1: Maximize what is around you
• Module 2: Minimize what is going out
• Module 3: Additional resources

The modules cover the following topics:

• Budgeting
• Filing Taxes
• Benefits and credits
• Community resources
• Saving and investing
• Debt management
• Frauds and scams
• Goal setting

Thank you, Prosper Canada, for helping Canadians learn more about their money!
