Post secondary is a noble and increasingly necessary pursuit. In such a fast paced world it's important to be ahead of the curve in everything you do. Our goal is to help SAIT students keep ahead of the competition through a variety of programs designed to give our members the edge over everyone else. We strive to empower, engage, and inform our members through events and educational resources including networking events, resources for financial literacy, education on advanced financial techniques, and other programs designed to bring value to our members.
Our finances are something that are critical to our overall success and often are not talked about. This means it's impossible to grow our understanding and learn how to effectively manage our money. We aim to change that with workshops, round-table discussions, articles, and guest speakers in order to shine some light on things that we can do to improve our overall financial well-being, both in the short and long term.
Learning is one thing, getting out into the real world is something completely different. It can often be intimidating and confusing on what to do and how to do it. That's why we aim to offer networking events, resume workshops, one-on-one career chats, and other events that are designed to get you thinking about how to approach your entry into the work force. Whether you're in your first year or graduating in the next, our events can help prepare you for your career aspirations. We offer specialized events for finance students as well as other events for different programs in an effort to advocate and champion all our members.
A club should be something you can count on. Something that gives you meaning and value. We understand how some areas of your post secondary journey can be difficult or confusing because we're also students. That's why we're your number one fan. We aim to make your life better through advocating for our members when issues arise, bringing our members together, and providing a sense of community at SAIT. Our members come from all walks of life. We strive to lead by example and make SFS a place for all to belong. All students and programs are welcome.
A finance society would be incomplete without some investing. We help facilitate the Student Investment Management Trust (SIMT). The SIMT is a student fund at SAIT that is managed by finance students and staffed by the SFS.
