This course will cover introductory topics on how to establish
credit, build credit and obtain and keep a good credit score. Students will learn
how their credit score influences interest rates on other purchases and why
fast money isn’t always good money (i.e. payday loans). It will also cover more
complex topics like understanding consumer and business credit, management
and analysis of consumer and business credit, international trade credit, and
collection management and control. Students will also learn about decision
making in granting credit and collection policies and procedures including
current laws affecting collections.
