Virtual, free series features Goalsetter’s award-winning curriculum together with financial wellness leaders

University of Phoenix is pleased to continue its webinar series with Goalsetter, an award-winning financial education platform dedicated to helping individuals and families achieve financial wellness through engaging and practical resources. The tenth installment of the series, “Investing in Families’ Future and Setting Kids Up for Financial Success,” will take place on Tuesday, August 19, at 12 p.m. MST.

This session, featuring Goalsetter Founder and CEO Tanya Van Court, iGrad’s Senior Vice President of Operations Kevin Soehner, and moderated by University of Phoenix Financial Literacy Director Chris Conway, will explore how families can help build a strong financial foundation for their children. Topics include teaching kids about budgeting, saving, and credit; setting family financial goals; building a financial safety net; and using tools like 529 plans and budgeting apps to support long-term success.

“Helping families talk openly about money and model healthy financial habits is one of the most powerful ways to help prepare the next generation for success,” shares Conway. “This session is about giving parents the tools to lead by example and empower their children with lifelong financial skills.”

Throughout the series, participants have gained valuable insights and practical strategies to leverage savings accounts and plan for a secure financial future, as well as engage in a Q&A session during each webinar.

Each month during the series, University of Phoenix and Goalsetter have offered webinars focused on key strategies for financial wellness:

• November: Managing Credit Card Debt and Fostering Good Credit Habits
