Based on requests from its members, the UWSA is pleased to announce a new series of workshops on personal finance for staff. Workshops will be hosted throughout 2025, and will cover topics like savings, investments, budgeting, and mortgages. Our first workshop of this series takes place February 19 at 12:00 p.m.
Personal Finance for Staff: WTH is a TFSA, RRSP, FHSA and what should I do with them?
You probably know each of these acronyms represent different ways to save for the future and that each comes with tax advantages, but do you feel a bit lost on where to begin, which to prioritize and what to do within each account? This session, led by University of Waterloo’s Dr. James Thompson, Associate Professor of Finance, will help you answer these questions and will give you a better understanding of how you can maximize your savings in ways that align with your personal situation, stage of life and financial goals.
Lunch will be provided. Please register by February 12 to ensure we can order enough food.
