Credit Scores impact your life, your work, and your business

Your personal credit scores have a huge impact on obtaining financing for many things you want to do - get a credit card, a job, a mortgage, insurance; buy a car; open or grow a business.
 
This workshop digs into the details and shows how others view your credit history. Learn about credit reports, credit scores. FICO, trade lines, collection items, credit inquiries.
 
Here is what you will learn:
  • How to obtain a credit report - Free

  • Reasons that you are being denied a loan
  • Who is FICO

This is a fact filled interactive workshop. Participants leave with a solid understanding of this topic that confuses so many. You will know how to obtain your credit reports regularly. Once you have them you will have the knowledge to understand what they say. You will have the knowledge about how to correct errors and what actions to take to improve the report and your scores.
