About the Project
This social initiative was launched sta iniciativa social começou m 2003 no EUA quando o Sr. Guy Mercielaunched in 2003 in the USA, when Guy Mercier -then VP Finance for Solvay Polymers Inc.- decided to train hundreds of their employees to better manage their personal finance…with success!
Launching this project in Portugal in 2014, we analyzed the local market through various pilot classes for Solvay employees and general public. We then fine-tuned our AMCP method (Awareness, Measurement, Control, Plan) and developed the tools.
As a result, our training center was certified by the Portuguese DGERT (part of Ministry of Labor) in 2019.
We put a solid distribution network in place to serve you online and in physical classes.
