Our mission is to create a generation that looks to themselves, not the government or other sources for financial support and success in their lives.
Creative Wealth Training is dedicated to providing Bahamian youth with a practical financial education that will inspire them to be financially responsible, encourage their upward mobility and empower them with skills to live the lifestyle they choose.
We have positively affected the lives of hundreds of youth and young adults throughout Nassau and Grand Bahama by teaching them the meaning of money and the beauty of business.
Through our programs, products and events, Creative Wealth helps kids, teens and young adults gain the important skills and habits that help prepare for their financial futures.
Beginning in 2008, founder and CEO Keshelle Kerr set out to prevent our next generation from making the financial mistakes she and many other adults have made in their lives.
Why Teach Youth about Money?
Because if you're like many, you weren't taught about money at home or in school. And if you're like many, you'd like to see as many children as possible learn about money while they are young, so they don't have to learn the hard way!
Our programs teach more than money; they teach about life. Participants learn that they are the CEOs of their own lives and that their lives are simply a result of their financial thoughts combined with their financial choices.
Our Teaching Technique
Our programs are not your ordinary financial programs! You won’t find a boring lecture or traditional form of instruction here! In all of our curricula, we use a unique delivery method called Accelerated Learning.
Accelerated learning (A.L.) is the most advanced teaching and learning method in used today. It is an interactive teaching style that aims to make learning fun, fast and effective. It is based on the way people naturally learn versus the unnatural, mechanistic and rationalistic methods of learning dominant in the 19th and early 20th centuries - and still even seen in our school system today.
A.L. unlocks much of our potential for learning that has been left largely untapped by conventional learning methods. It does this by appealing to all learning styles, actively involving the whole person, using physical movement, creativity, music, images, color, and other methods designed to get people deeply involved in their own learning.
Our kids are engaged throughout the entire camp, which enable learner to remember at least 90% of what they are taught, it is doing and having fun!
In all of our programs we:
Make it relevant.
Kids don’t care about check books and credit cards yet because they don’t have to use them. We show them why it’s important to care now so they don’t pay later.
Place experience before content.
Nearly every major concept is tied to a game, activity or process, which means the kids learn about financial concepts without even knowing it.
Repetitive and Review.
A wise man once said repetition is the mother of skill. Kids are exposed to the most important information multiple times in a variety of different avenues so the information really sticks.
