Sound familiar?
Everyone expects you to have money figured out. Nobody actually showed you how.
- My allowance is gone by the second week.
- Everyone online seems to be making money except me.
- I'm scared I'll graduate and still have no plan.
- I've watched the adults around me struggle with money. I don't want that.
Feeling behind at 20 is more common than anyone admits. Three days won't fix everything, but you'll leave with your first financial plan, people your age on the same road, and the confidence to start before life gets expensive.

What is the Centonomy Campus Edition?
Centonomy Campus Edition gives young people the foundation to navigate the real world, helping them make sense of money, spot opportunities and make smarter choices about their future. They develop the mindset, tools and skills to manage money, think entrepreneurially and confidently shape their future.
Who should attend the programme?
It is designed for young adults around ages 19 to 25, particularly university and college students preparing for greater financial independence, employment and entrepreneurship.
Why do students need this programme?
Academic qualifications are important, but young adults also need practical skills to manage money, handle financial pressures, explore income opportunities and make career decisions. Campus Edition bridges the gap between academic learning and those everyday realities.
Is this programme only about personal finance?
No. Personal financial management is at its core, but it also covers entrepreneurship, recognising opportunities, career readiness, first-job preparation, mentorship and personal growth.
Will I leave with a business or a job?
The programme supports entrepreneurship and career readiness, but it is not a guarantee of employment, business success or investment returns. It builds the knowledge, skills and decision-making you can use to pursue those opportunities.
When is the next cohort, and what are the class times?
Thursday 11 to Saturday 13 February 2027, from 8:30am to 12:30pm EAT each day, over three consecutive days. The venue is to be confirmed.
How much does it cost, and can I pay in instalments?
KES 25,000 (USD 193). Start with the KES 1,000 registration fee, followed by two instalments of KES 12,000. The fee covers refreshments and all learning materials.
Can my university or an organisation pay for me?
University-funded, sponsor-funded and shared-cost arrangements are possible by agreement. Contact Jackie to find out what is available.
Will I receive a certificate?
Yes. You receive a certificate when you complete the programme.
Is The Campus Connect the same as the Campus Edition programme?
No. The Campus Connect is a free, standalone event on 28 November 2026. Campus Edition is the three-day programme from 11 to 13 February 2027. Attending the event is not registration for the programme.
How do I register?
