I learnt how to plan for retirement properly, which will help me in peace of mind and in turn I can do my job better. The course can be conducted for young people too as planning for retirement takes years to be financially sound

I found the Investment Planning For Yourself Workshop excellent! I wish my brain was big enough to absorb eveything at full speed! …S$300 may be tough to let go but the value of that knowledge and being able to put it to practice in your life will be worth probably tenfold more. Aim for your long-term goals.

I am very fortunate to listen and learn from Christopher Tan. I have personally got value from every talk/course that I attended from Providend Centre of Financial Education. I have built up my confidence in financial matters, such that I can ask the right question of any financial professional I meet.
In the ‘Investment Planning for Yourself’ workshop I learnt what is my Risk Profile and how to execute asset allocation confidently. I also learnt how to project my retirement nest egg, which was a very useful tool to take away!
