Louise White Cert.Mgmt (Open) - Financial Literacy
I got the role of Transport Coordinator
I recently completed the 8-week Financial Literacy Skills Bootcamp delivered by Synergy STEM Partners, and I cannot recommend it highly enough for anyone living in Cheshire or Warrington.
The Learning Experience
The course is incredibly well-structured. Even though it is delivered online, the blend of practical activities and interactive sessions kept me engaged throughout. We covered everything from the "Money Mindset" and budgeting templates to complex topics like ISA’s, pensions, and self-employment taxes. It turned subjects that usually feel "scary" or "boring" into something genuinely interesting and manageable.
Expert Tutors & Support
The tutors were the standout feature for me. They were not only knowledgeable but also approachable and patient. They took the time to ensure everyone, regardless of their starting point, felt confident making financial decisions. Beyond the finance side, the 1-to-1 career coaching and CV workshops were a massive bonus. I walked away with a professional CV and the confidence to handle interviews much better than before.
Key Highlights:
- Insightful Curriculum: You learn real-world skills like cost-benefit analysis and debt management.
- Flexible but Rigorous: The 8–10 hours per week commitment fits well around other responsibilities but provides deep, CPD-accredited learning.
- Completely Free: It’s fully funded by the Department for Education, making high-level financial education accessible to everyone.
- Employability Focus: The added digital skills and networking opportunities make this more than just a finance course, it’s a career booster.
Final Verdict
Completing this course assisted me in regaining my confidence back after having a year out of the work place following a health crisis. I attended an interview at The Delivery Group in December 2025 for the role of Transport Coordinator and got the job!
