Do you know what a credit report is? If you have a credit card, cell phone, car loan or student loan from the bank, then you already have a credit report and score. In addition to having higher credit approval rates, people with good credit often receive lower interest rates. This is now more important than ever, given the climate of rising interest rates. Paying less interest on your debt can save you a lot of money over time, so building your credit score is one of the smartest financial moves you can make.

Attend this workshop to learn everything you ever wanted to know (and more) about your credit score and how you can increase it.

Hosts: Nyota Kabika, Mac’s Money Centre Program Assistant; Terry Bennett, Money Coach
