The course presents the basic insights of corporate finance theory, but emphasizes the application of theory to real business decisions. Each session involves class discussion, some centered on lectures and others around business cases.

This is an interactive resource to help train anyone to be more observant and be able to identify suspects in the event a crime has occurred. While this is directed to employees of a financial institution, anyone can use it to increase their powers of observation. This is also a great exercise to give to students to help them become more observant of people and surroundings.

Money Stories is a series of 8 lessons dealing with financial matters of everyday life. The Money Stories Program originated when Elders at the Aboriginal Seniors Resource Centre (in Winnipeg, MB) had the idea that money management training should be taught to Indigenous youth with a focus on Indigenous values, culture, and traditional teachings. The Money Stories Curriculum was then developed and tweaked by current and past SEED Winnipeg Inc. staff.

Everyone is welcome to review the Money Stories Curriculum presented here. Note: the attached materials are read-only. SEED Winnipeg Inc. kindly requests that organizations contact them directly via email or phone to request a printable version of the instructor’s manual and to order printed versions of the workbook (there will be a fee to recover costs for the workbook). Interested organizations should have like-minded goals and values that support individuals in any of these areas: financial empowerment, education, job readiness, or life skills training. Someone with facilitation experience is an asset.
