Produced at Share Radio and based on the Open University course of the same name, Managing My Money is a great way to get up to speed with money matters.
Presenters Glen Goodman and Annie Weston have done the impossible - they’ve made finance fun! From savings to mortgages to insurance, this completely free course is a delight - and you can follow the links to find slides and our short quizzes, with a certificate at the end to prove how financially knowledgeable you are.
There's a quiz at the end of each pair of 25 minute episodes, with a final test at the end of the course including the course completion certificate endorsed by the Open University which can be used on your CV. Take it your own pace - there's no need to work to eight calendar weeks to match the pairs of episodes.
So you can either just listen, or sign-up to take the quizzes and monitor your progress. Finally, please remember that this course is educational guidance, not financial advice.
