// PROGRAMS · YOURSELF · YOUR TEAM · THE NEXT GENERATION

Grow yourself, your team and the next generation.

One simulation of strategic thinking and decision-making runs through every program: a board, a Trainer, a Banker and a paper ledger for each participant. Every session runs five hours, and the group and the debrief change with the program: adults come to rethink their choices, organizations bring a team, schools and families bring young people. This page names each program, who takes part, how long it runs, and whether the price is published or quoted.

The seat prices are fixed; the rest is a quote

Until 31 October 2026 a seat at an open session costs CAD 150, and CAD 100 each for two or more. From 1 November 2026: CAD 200 a seat, CAD 150 each for a pair, CAD 1,000 for a whole table. Those are the figures the site publishes. Scenario-based corporate sessions are priced individually, depending on the client's task. Everything a school or a funder orders carries a figure built for the case, because the number follows the format, how many tables run at once, the group size, the venue and the travel. The price page lists what each quote is made of, line by line.

Ontario schools

From the 2026–2027 school year, students who entered Grade 9 in 2025–2026 or later meet a financial-literacy graduation requirement inside compulsory Grade 10 Career Studies, using modules and assessment questions developed by TVO. Our guide to the requirement sets out the rules, and the preparation page is written for the family: the dates the school names, the two attempts, and what happens after a mark under 70%. Life Capital is experiential practice beside those modules; the assessment itself stays with the school and the province.

Ontario schools with no budget line for this can book free, staff-led programs elsewhere: the Bank of Canada Museum runs them online across Canada and onsite in Ottawa, with a temporary-closure notice standing on the Museum itself as of 23 September 2026. A teacher who asks about free options gets that answer in the reply, and the price page says what a paid five-hour simulation adds on top.
