From wealth management and consulting to investment banks and hedge funds, The Street Smarts has connected students from all different types of backgrounds to various opportunities in the Financial sector. This aids students to develop their full potential and to pursue their dream.
For the first time ever, The Street Smarts will be presenting an online summer finance program that will demonstrate a detailed course on ten different financial industries. Financial experts crossing different fields will lead formulas and solutions that best fit the position problems; explain how to stand out from your coworkers; as well include a general overview that may qualify our students to receive a TSS certificate that proves their understanding of investment and consulting fields.
The TSS Accounting Scholars program will work with college students to introduce them to career opportunities in the Accounting field. We encourage our scholars to strive to become part of something that is a little bit bigger than themselves. It is in this manner that they will stretch themselves and grow into excellence and achievement throughout their career.
The Street Smarts will be working with high school students from the East Bay area, San Francisco, and in Chicago to introduce financial literacy concepts. Students who learn to manage their finances early and often become adults who are better equipped to live independently. By teaching young adults to make good financial decisions, they learn to pay down debt or avoid it altogether.
Finance has its own language. Want to enrich your summer and learn these important Financial topics from professionals who excel in these topics all while earning your one-of-a-kind TSS certificate?

“You have to understand accounting and you have to understand the nuances of accounting. It’s the language of business and it’s an imperfect language, but unless you are willing to put in the effort to learn accounting – how to read and interpret financial statements – you really shouldn’t select stocks yourself.”
The Street Smarts (TSS) is an Oakland based nonprofit that provides a unique opportunity for historically disadvantaged youth to explore all aspects of financial and accounting management.
