Smart Credit Strategies Webinar

What’s your biggest credit question?          

Last summer we asked union members to share their top credit questions with us. Frankly, we were astonished by how many people took the time to write us about a variety of issues, ranging from boosting their credit scores to digging out of debt.

As a result, we expanded our credit education advice and UnionDebtHelp.org content, incorporating many of the topics you raised.

But we want to do even more to make sure you have the tools you need to weather today’s credit crunch.

We arranged an exclusive online seminar (“Webinar”) with consumer credit expert Gerri Detweiler. She’s the author of four personal finance books, testified before Congress, and has been featured in many news articles.

During the live Webinar on May 29, Gerri covered many credit topics including:

• Ways to save money by avoiding credit card fees,
• The value of boosting your credit score by just 30 points,
• How to read your credit report, and more.  

Gerri also answered credit questions from union members. We recorded the Webinar so you can watch this 60-minute presentation now or whenever it fits your schedule.  Then follow Gerri's proven tips for getting out of debt.  They work for even the tightest budgets.
