I know we did everything from writing resumes and cover letters through mortgages, RRSPs and all kinds of other important topics. Whether people took anything away and applied it is another matter though.
We did Resumes and Cover Letters. There was one very small exercise on budgeting that didn't do a whole lot, but at least it scratched the surface. Nothing coming even close to mortgages, loans, RRSPs, etc.

I would agree that the few important things it covered are mostly ignored by those in the class.
