From there\, students dive deep into the FICO Formula and credit reporting\, learning exactly how the “Big Three” bureaus evaluate financial reputations and how to effectively dispute inaccuracies. To move beyond theory\, the course provides a roadmap for Strategic Debt Management\, teaching participants how to calculate their debt-to-income ratios and identify the warning signs of a financial “danger zone.” \nThe syllabus also covers the practical\, day-to-day use of financial tools\, specifically focusing on the Responsible Use of Credit Cards by explaining statement cycles and the mathematical pitfalls of minimum payments. Finally\, the program bridges the gap between management and growth through Future Planning\, highlighting essential banking resources\, the necessity of emergency funds\, and the steps required to prepare for major life milestones like homeownership or entrepreneurship. This course ensures that every attendee leaves with a clear understanding of how to make credit work for them rather than against them. \nYour presenters: \nCallihan Benson is the Financial Center Manager at Heartland Bank\, a Division of German American Bank\, in Pickerington. She has 18 years of experience in retail banking. She is the treasurer of the Tri-County Area Realty Association\, and a member of the Pickerington Lion’s Club. Callihan loves building relationships and helping her customers save time and money. When she is not at work\, she is with her husband\, Chris\, of 17 years and son\, Cooper\, who is 11. \n \n\nSince 1995\, Brent Diebert has assisted countless clients on their journeys to become homeowners. As an integral part of the Heartland Bank Mortgage team\, Brent is committed to guiding his clients with confidence through the loan process. While explaining the lending procedure\, products and terminology\, his goal is to find the perfect loan for his clients’ needs. Even though homeowners may think about purchasing or refinancing a home only a few times in their lives\, Brent thinks about it daily to be prepared with advice for the biggest financial transaction most individuals make. He is a board member of Leadership Worthington\, supporter of Worthington Robotics\, and the past Co-chair of the Affordable Housing Committee at Columbus REALTORS®. Brent is also a licensed continuing education provider often focusing on home affordability topics with real estate agents throughout Ohio. \n\n\n\n  \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Threads (Opens in new window)\n Threads\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n Like this:Like Loading… URL:https://pickeringtononline.com/event/financial-foundations/ LOCATION:Pickerington Library (Sycamore Plaza)\, 7861 Refugee Road\, Pickerington\, OH\, 43147\, United States CATEGORIES:18 and Over,Community Event,Informative Event,Networking,Pickerington Public Library,Presentation ORGANIZER;CN="Pickerington Public Library":MAILTO:cbauman@pickeringtonlibrary.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260615T183000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260615T193000 DTSTAMP:20260602T173628Z CREATED:20260602T013625Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260602T173628Z UID:44417-1781548200-1781551800@pickeringtononline.com SUMMARY:Marketing for Small Buiness Session 2: Low and No-Cost Resources DESCRIPTION:Session 2 of 2 \n\n\n\nLearn how to know who to target and where to put your marketing dollars so they drive people to your business.
