Since 2013, Guardian’s Money Management for LifeSM program has created alliances with community colleges across the country to offer a free, for-credit personal finance course. These courses help educate students, imparting the essential skills needed to manage their own finances and plan for their educational and financial futures. They are designed by educational professionals, and Guardian’s employees regularly contribute to the classes. Students enrolled in the courses are also provided with additional opportunities for personal and career growth through internships with Guardian. Since the start of this program, nearly 600 students have successfully completed the course, with almost 30 students earning paid summer internships with the company.
