Peoples Bank Mortgage Sales Manager Kevin Brady and Business Center Managers Melissa Aldrich and Will Daughtrey, recently provided a financial presentation for Catawba Valley Community College (CVCC) Construction Careers Academy students.
The session was held at the college’s Workforce Solutions Center, a state-of-the-art facility dedicated to providing training that prepares students to excel in technical trades.
Brady, who has been actively involved with the CVCC Construction Careers Academy since 2018, led the presentation, with Aldrich and Daughtrey contributing their wealth of experience and financial expertise to enrich the session for students. The presentation delved into budgeting, credit management, online safety, and more, offering a holistic understanding of financial principles essential for personal and professional development.
Rick Ayers, Instructor at CVCC Construction Careers Academy, emphasized the significance of financial education, stating, “Financial education is crucial for my construction academy students. Money can get away from you, and at their age, it’s important to develop good money habits.”
In addition to classroom presentations, Peoples Bank also offers a virtual Financial Wellness Center, accessible through PeoplesBankNC.com/Learn. This digital resource hub equips individuals with valuable insight on managing finances effectively.
