A note to students:
Many of the activities in this workbook ask you to fill in information about your job history and your personal finances. For many people, these are private matters they do not want to share in the classroom. You may decide to make up information to practice the exercises during class. Later, at home, you can complete the forms with the real information to learn about whether you might qualify for a loan.
