Start with What Actually Matters

Most investment courses throw complex theories at you right away. But here's what I've learned after years of teaching: you need to understand the basics first. Really understand them.

When Merideth Vickland joined our fall 2024 program, she had $15,000 sitting in a savings account for three years. Six months later, she understood exactly where to put that money and why. That's the kind of clarity we focus on.

Three Pillars of Smart Investing

Everything else is just noise. Focus on these core areas and you'll make better decisions than 80% of investors out there.

Asset Allocation

Learn how to split your money between stocks, bonds, and other investments based on your age, goals, and risk tolerance. We use real Canadian examples, not theoretical models.

Cost Management

Fees kill returns over time. We'll show you exactly what to look for in expense ratios, management fees, and hidden costs that eat away at your money.

Behavioral Discipline

The biggest enemy of investment success isn't the market — it's your emotions. We teach practical strategies to stick to your plan when things get volatile.

Real Progress from Real People

These aren't get-rich-quick stories. They're examples of people who learned the fundamentals and applied them consistently.

Small Steps, Big Changes

Last year's spring cohort included teachers, engineers, and small business owners. What they had in common was confusion about where to start. By the end of our six-month program, they each had clear investment plans and the knowledge to adjust them as life changed.

One participant, a nurse from Calgary, told me she finally understood why her advisor kept pushing certain mutual funds. Another realized he'd been paying way too much in fees for years. These moments of clarity — that's what good education looks like.

"The program helped me see through all the marketing noise. Now I actually understand what I'm investing in and why. No more blind trust in whatever my bank recommends."

"I wish I'd found this course 10 years ago. The tax strategies alone have saved me hundreds of dollars, and now I feel confident making investment decisions on my own."
