Momentum Financial Literacy Curriculum and Facilitator Training (Stony Plain)

Location: 107, 4613 52 Avenue, Stony Plain AB

Region(s): West Central

Registration for this training is now closed.

This 2-day training is designed to empower your agency to provide money management education for people living on low-incomes and often facing other barriers. Momentum's training is grounded in the sustainable livelihoods model which is a strengths-based approach to poverty reduction.

Momentum’s curriculum contains five core modules and accompanying facilitators’ guides: Budgeting, Assets, Banking, Credit/Debt Management and Consumerism. The training also covers facilitation skills, adult learning principles and best practices. A big part of what makes our curriculum unique is that we use a strengths-based, asset building approach. This approach is grounded in the Sustainable Livelihoods Model. In a nutshell, this model focuses on what people have rather than what they lack and works on strengthening those areas. It is a user-friendly, high-quality curriculum that has been developed based on nearly 20 years of experience working with vulnerable populations.

Dates: October 25 & 26, 2017
