During the past six months I have slowly been piecing together the knowledge I need to feel confident about investing. I wish I was aware of this course from the very beginning as it provides a solid foundation to understanding the basics of investing in Canada, and also offers a ton of valuable resources to continue learning once you finish the course. Jessica describes all of the content in plain terms, and breaks down the financial jargon so it is easy to understand. I highly recommend this course if you are a beginner like myself, and want to learn more information about common types of investments, accounts, and strategies to get you started, headache free. Thanks Jessica!

Fantastic! Thank you, Jessica. This course provided the perfect foundation for me to start doing some research and asking the right questions when it comes to investing.

This is an absolutely fantastic course! If I may make one recommendation, incorporating more visuals in the video presentations and graphs without making it "flashy" would go a long way. I'm a VERY visual learner and I wouldn't have gotten through the course if you didn't have the video presentations, but I found they even had a lot of text in them. That's about the only thing that stuck out to me the most.

This course was so well designed and was presented in a logical and easy to understand order. I am going to recommend it to anyone who is looking to learn more about investing!

Jessica's course dusts off what we thought we knew about investing and gives a deeper understanding of many of the terms that are thrown around when talk around the water cooler turns to investing and retirement savings. I feel more confident now to take some action around my current investments and make more educated decisions going forward. Highly recommended!

I signed up for this course to get a clearer picture of financial stuff and I definitely got that. I am a 50-year-old nurse who has let my husband do the bulk of the financial planning over the course of my life. He has been great, but I felt like it was time I learned about it all myself. This course gave me a great overall understanding of the terminology used and the concepts in the financial world. I feel much more confident! I even felt brave enough to start investing with a robo-advisor. Jessica has a great way of teaching things. She is clear and concise and easy to understand. I highly recommend doing it as a way to expand or enhance your financial literacy. Thank you Jessica!

Although this course is designed for Canadians, I am American and able to relate to almost all of it! For anyone who is new with investing, this course breaks it down to make your next financial step easier.

I would highly recommend this course! Everyone should have a basic understanding of finances and investing and this course does just that. Jessica does a great job breaking down terms and concepts so they are easy to understand and digest. She's so knowledgeable and also includes links to great resources. If you're thinking of purchasing, just do it! You'll thank yourself later for investing in yourself! Thank you Jessica for creating this and I look forward to part 2!

The Investing Foundations for Canadians course was very informative and a great course for beginners like me! I would highly recommend this course to everyone!

A great course, thank you!

This is a very well-designed foundational investment course. It's comprehensive, thorough, and well-delivered. It's a great starter course for novices and offers a great many resources so that students can continue to learn more about investment.
