It's a financial education program for young adults. Our training programs are based on a dynamic and hands-on approach. With the help of a network of accredited trainers across Quebec and Ontario, workshops are available both in-class and online.

Our Goals

Témoignages

What I find great about a program like this is that it uses a learning model that is dynamic and, above all, interesting for young people.

Carrefour Jeunesse Emploi

Rosemont/Petite-Patrie, Quebec

At first, I didn't think that these workshops concerned. I'm 17 year old and I don't have any bills to pay or any debts. After you asked me to set some financial goals, I realized that this was something that it was for me. As a result, I was able to save enough money to buy my first truck. I also shopped around around and opened my savings account, which is helping me to build my capital.
