Money Mastery

FREE one-day money coaching seminar for youth workers and other professionals who work with young people.

Following a successful second year of Money Mastery seminars, The NYA is pleased to announce the next series of courses. They will begin in October and will run through until May 2010 in various locations across the UK.

This year, in addition to ‘Money Mastery’ a new course entitled ‘Money Mastery meets the Benefits Trap’ will be on offer. Both courses are free and open to youth workers and other professionals who work with young people.

Money Mastery offers you the chance to:

• explore the fascinating psychology of money and behaviour in order to understand how our actions are driven by our feelings, beliefs and values, and to use this to positively impact young people’s goal setting and motivation
• develop tools and techniques for empowering young people around their finances, and to have a new sense of freedom and confidence around your own money
• revolutionise your own financial confidence and transform your relationship with money, so that you become an even better role model for young people
• spend a day working through a light, fun and entertaining methodology (including Neuro Linguistic Programming) that will leave any preconceptions that money has to be difficult and boring trailing in the dust.

Money Mastery meets the Benefits Trap:

Over the past two years many youth workers attending Money Mastery courses have expressed their frustration at a phenomenon that is often dubbed ‘The Benefits Trap’. For the first time this year we are offering a new course to run alongside Money Mastery which will aim to start addressing these issues – or at least give more options and choices to youth workers who are faced with them. The course will be informed by new research and structured to give practical tools and techniques to practitioners aimed at helping (where appropriate) to move young people from unemployment and into work, training or education.

About Money Mastery

Money Mastery is designed to work in tandem with the FSA’s Young People and Money course (currently being delivered across the UK – see http://www.youngpeopleandmoney.co.uk/). The two courses complement each other and can either be attended as stand-alone workshops or alongside each other to provide a broader solution to the challenges of working with young people around their financial literacy.
