University of California at Irvine will launch its "Fundamentals of Personal Financial Planning" online course on January 14.
The course will run for 6 weeks and would only involve a workload of 3 to 6 hours a week. Which means one less hour spent on Facebook a day or <whatever else people are busy with these days> would more than suffice. :)
Here's the course description from the website:
"Explore the basic personal financial planning concepts. Learn how to define and reach your financial goals. Apply the framework of personal financial planning to monitor your own finances, with special emphasis on lifecycle-specific topics, such as saving for education, student loans, or wealth management and estate planning."
The course will be facilitated by Avi Pai, a licensed financial consultant who has also taught a Financial Planning course at UC Irvine.
Don't forget to register; I already have. See you all in class next week!
Thanks to Nolan for the heads up.
