Open Palm’s fully funded and accredited WYZ Money course enables young people to build foundational financial skills and knowledge. Aimed at Black, Mixed Heritage, and Ethnic Minority students, but open to all, this unique course equips 11-18-year-olds with the skills needed for financial success in our ever-changing economy.
Empower your students with financial skills for the future
Students work through a series of modules at their own pace, curated for three different age groups. They will be exposed to a range of topics, engage with activities that encourage self-reflection, and watch videos from a diverse range of working professionals.
Young people will gain vital financial knowledge and skills to make good financial decisions, and importantly have the opportunity to gain a nationally-recognised accreditation from ASDAN.
Schools and colleges can easily enrol whole cohorts of students, gaining access to the course within 48 hours. With dashboard access, educators can track student progress through the modules and support achievement of the accreditation.

How your school and students can benefit
All of the WYZ Money content is focused on developing a positive money mindset and encouraging young people to consider their financial future.
The programme provides a practical way to apply maths and numeracy concepts as well as supporting PSHE and Citizenship curriculums. It also lends itself well to a whole-school approach by promoting personal development and meeting requirements for career-related learning.
Topics include budgeting, saving, investing, dealing with debt, and understanding what it means to ‘give back’ to community. Learning progression by age group enables young people to learn at a level that works for them, with age-relevant examples and scenarios.
We partner with ASDAN, an education charity and awarding organisation who regulate our WYZ® courses.

Adaeze enjoyed this course immensely and has really thrived on this. During lockdown, she lost focus and motivation with her school work. This course gave her something different and exciting to look forward to each week.
