Home study - Personal Finance Course?

HI all,

Does anyone know of a Personal Finance course I can take? Preferably by correspondence, otherwise part-time evenings/weekends. I found one @ Open Uni but the cost is £340 - quite high price I think.

I would like to learn about financial planning, making financial decisions, investing, making budgets, insurance etc.

Has anyone who has done the course at Open uni comment on it?

Thanks!

  • Hi

    I did this course and although I don't think I gained much from it, it is a good course in the sense it gives you lots to think about and the teaching materials are the usual excellent stuff you would expect from the OU.
