Learn how to invest in 2025

Investing is a powerful tool for building wealth and securing your financial future. The sooner you start, the more time you have to benefit from compound growth. Whether you’re saving for retirement, a home, or your child’s education, investing can help you achieve your goals faster.

This course is for you if:

• You want to achieve big goals throughout your life

• You want to use the money you have to live a life you love that’s aligned with your goals

• You desire more freedom, flexibility, choice and opportunity

• You are new to investing or understand some of the basics but want to deepen your knowledge

• You’re overwhelmed by all the investing information out there and want a clear and concise roadmap

• You want to be confident you’re getting trustworthy investment knowledge checked by an Australian licensee.

• You’re busy and want direct, actionable steps that you can take quickly (you’ll be able to make your first investment by the end of this 5 week course!)

• You’re investing from Australia and want Australian specific knowledge because you’ve found that so much of the content is American!

This course will:

• Set you up with the skills you need to begin investing on your own and prep you to successfully do this yourself throughout the rest of your life

• Teach you the core essential principles of investing including how to build and manage your portfolio and the strategies and tips you need to grow your wealth over the long term. We start with the basics of shares, ETFS and your goals, then moving on to building a portfolio and continuing to manage it!

• Give you the knowledge, tools and support your need to start investing and begin reaching your financial goals

• Help you understand all those Tik Tok scenarios you’ve seen and unpack how a real life scenario might work out which we will help you link to your goals.

• The only female founded and led simplistic course/workshop that is focused on investing from Australia specifically.

• Your instructor, Olivia, is a generally licensed authorized representative of guideway financial services. She holds RG146 qualifications in Securities and Superannuation.

• Olivia has helped countless individuals like yourself begin their investing journeys and take control of their financial futures.

• After years as a high school teacher and now an experienced financial educator across Australia, Olivia is skilled at breaking down complex concepts and building understanding in complete beginners!

• Olivia is truly passionate about financial education and believes that everyone should have the opportunity to build a secure financial future.

• Olivia has been where you are, with no idea about stocks, shares or the S&P500 or where to start. With no one to ask or guide her, Olivia taught herself everything about investing.

Honestly, yes you could, I did exactly this many years ago. Teaching myself the fundamentals of investing through hours of reading, podcasts and social media. It took me many many years to piece together all of the knowledge that I’ve put together for you in this five-week course. Locating information that you can trust and that is Australia based can be really difficult.

This course is structured into bite-sized lessons that you watch once per day for just 5 weeks! There are 10 multiple-choice questions after every lesson and one piece of homework for every week! The homework is designed to take what you’ve learnt from the short daily lessons and help you apply this to your own investing journey. For example, it will help you take actionable steps to actually make an investment by the end of this course. So, unlike we did at school, it’s best to actually do the homework to get the most out of this course. However, it will easily fit alongside any normal week for you as you can expect to allocate just 2-3 hours per week for your learning. You will always have access to the course and can revisit at any time when you need some information in the future.

All you need is an internet connection and a willingness to learn. You can print out the homework PDF book and write straight onto it if you like, or complete it online!

Within this course we are focusing on long-term investing rather than short-term trading or speculation. We won’t be diving into stock-picking or day trading. Instead, we’ll focus on strategies that have been proven to work over time, with an emphasis on facts, diversification and risk management.
