This class will teach you what you need to know to choose the best Mutual Funds for you. No prior knowledge is required. Stocks, Bonds and the various different types of Stock and Bond Mutual Funds will be explained. We will cover all the basic characteristics of Mutual Funds and explain all the “technical” information for Stock and Bond Funds specifically. Also, popular and free online resources for researching Mutual Funds will be used during class so that you can feel comfortable using them on your own after the class is completed. The knowledge gained in this class will make you more confident with your 401(k) choices as well as investments made outside of your 401(k).

This class is your chance to learn about Exchange Traded Funds – ETFs for short – in an environment that is “education only” and geared for people with no prior knowledge of ETFs. Some ETFs can be considered alternatives to certain Mutual Funds. The way ETFs are bought and sold and the way they are constructed are much different than Mutual Funds.

You will also learn the different types of ETFs that are available and which information you should check when choosing between ETFs. This class will give you a firm base of knowledge of ETFs.
