If your FSA office said you have to take a “Financial Management Course,” this is it.

It is a self-paced, online class. You can start and stop any time. 

The cost is $79/month and the course can be completed in one day (it’s about 7 hours of videos); but some folks take longer.

Be sure to cancel your membership/subscription when you’ve completed the program to ensure you don’t get charged for additional months.
