The Tuesday webinar will cover what credit reporting agencies do, the crossroads of what makes the FICO credit score, what financial actions hurt a FICO score, what does not affect a FICO score, and how to protect, improve or repair a FICO score.

The next webinar is scheduled for March 17 and will focus on identity theft.
