The Independent Advantage program is a series of financial classes available to teens between the ages of 15 – 18.all about the benjamins In a relaxed and fun environment, students learn about checking accounts, electronic account access, credit, and budgeting. Once students complete these classes, they receive a checking account with free checks, a VISA check card, a VISA credit card, and complete electronic access to their accounts. Classes are free … students only need to have an open savings account with the Credit Union.

studentEach class runs from 5:45 pm to 8:00 pm, one night per week for four weeks, and include a free dinner to start things off. Students receive a notebook, calculator and pen. Each class begins with a handout containing all of the information to be covered that evening. We want the students to be able to concentrate on the material, not on the task of taking notes. These notebooks are great reference tools for questions that may come up in the future.

If you would like to enroll for the classes, signup here or call or email Joanna Tomlinson at (818) 846-1710, Ext. 310.
