In the first of a series of monthly updates on new topics, we’re shining the spotlight on a session that is designed to get parents up to speed with the challenges of funding their child’s further education. This helpful session comprehensively covers the many thorny issues associated with embarking on student life, de-mystifying what can seem like a complicated and stressful process.
On-Trend Topic
A record number of 18-year olds are heading off to university this year – a trend that looks set to continue. This webinar covers all the pertinent financial issues in a really accessible way, shedding light on what for many is a tricky time in terms of managing the family budget.
Expert Insight
University is held up as a brilliant life experience – but there’s no getting away from the fact that it is an expensive undertaking. The seismic shift from A-level student surrounded by home comforts to undergraduate potentially living hours away from family can seem overwhelming to parents and teens alike, and facing up to both the financial and the emotional aspects simultaneously can be overwhelming. This balancing act is one that many parents find challenging, and offering this webinar is an ideal way to help them get to grips with the many different aspects that need to be considered.
Comprehensive Overview
This webinar or seminar takes the stress out of the necessary financial planning by highlighting and breaking down the key concerns into bite-sized chunks. The session covers everything from successfully navigating the student loans maze to helping budding students with their money management skills.
Knowledge is Power
Money is such an emotive and highly personal subject, so it’s empowering for delegates to have a safe space where they are able to ask anonymous questions that they might not feel comfortable asking elsewhere. Questions from this particular session have touched on issues from the government’s expectation that parents will top up loans to how the final loan amount is calculated, and listeners have been signposted to other trusted sources that can provide further information and guidance.
