Earlier this year, Patrick Geddes joined us for a series on investing, and the response was overwhelming: teachers told us they wanted another chance to learn from him. And when teachers ask for more, we listen. So I am thrilled to share that Patrick is coming back to run his five-week investing series again this spring.
Patrick is the former CEO of Aperio Group and the author of Transparent Investing, a book dedicated to making investing clearer and more accessible for everyone. He has a true talent for cutting through industry jargon and helping people feel confident about investing concepts.
Patrick will run five consecutive sessions on Tuesdays at 4:00pm PT / 7:00pm ET, each one building on the last. Whether you missed the series the first time around or want a chance to revisit the content, you can register for the full series or drop into the sessions that fit your schedule.
