Invest for Success

INVEST FOR SUCCESS:
Develop the Skills and Confidence to Make Informed Investment Decisions

A practical investing program that combines face-to-face learning, personalised coaching, and ongoing graduate support to help you confidently apply what you learn in the real world.  

The Wealthwise Difference

Most people know they should be investing, but many feel overwhelmed by conflicting opinions, market noise and uncertainty about where to begin.

Invest for Success is designed to change that. You’ll learn a practical, structured approach to investing that helps you understand what to look for, manage risk effectively and make informed investment decisions with confidence.

Our investment approach is built on three pillars: Value, Timing and Risk Management. Together, they give you a structured way to evaluate every investment opportunity. You’ll learn how to identify quality investments, know when to buy and when to sell, and manage risk in a disciplined way.

Learning to invest is one thing. Developing the confidence to invest on your own is another. That’s why our support doesn’t end when the workshop finishes. Through small class sizes, individual mentoring and ongoing graduate support, we help you apply what you’ve learned until it becomes second nature.

Our Learning Approach

Learn. Apply. Support.

✓ Face-to-Face Interactive Learning
✓ Four Weeks of Individual Coaching
✓ Small Class Sizes & Personal Attention
✓ Direct Access to Educators: David Novac & Kate Sheehan
✓ Ongoing Graduate Support Community

How You’ll Learn

Many investing courses provide information.

Invest for Success provides a pathway to becoming a more confident investor.

Our goal isn’t simply to teach investing concepts. It’s to help you understand them, apply them and continue developing your skills long after the workshop is complete.

Learn.

Build a strong foundation through an intensive, interactive face-to-face workshop delivered in a small group environment.

You’ll learn practical investing principles, proven methodologies and the essential skills needed to approach the share market with greater confidence and clarity.

Apply.

Knowledge alone isn’t enough.

That’s why every participant receives four weeks of personalised coaching following the workshop.

Through weekly one-on-one remote training sessions, you’ll reinforce your learning, ask questions, overcome obstacles and gain confidence applying the Wealthwise method in a practical and supportive environment.

Support.

Unlike many investing courses, our relationship with graduates doesn’t end when the workshop finishes.

You’ll become part of the Wealthwise graduate community where you can continue learning, share experiences, ask questions and receive ongoing support as your investing journey evolves.

Becoming a successful investor is not about attending a single workshop.

It’s about developing the knowledge, confidence and discipline to make better investment decisions over time.

      What Our Graduates Think

      My wife Anna, and my two teenage boys, did the 'Invest for Success' program with Wealthwise, Kate and David a few months ago. It was a revelation. I had done some trading courses in the past, but this program made everything so much clearer to me. We have already made a significant profit with our self-managed superfund.  My boys pooled their savings, and have already made, in this short time, triple what they were making annually with their money in a “high interest” bank account. Kate and David were so easy to talk to and I guess, with their wealth of experience, have a very sophisticated understanding of what they teach, and the unusual ability to make the complex seem simple. I can’t recommend Wealthwise Education highly enough.

      Hugh R, already profiting since the program

      Wealthwise Education has created incredibly powerful courses for learning about trading and investing in stocks and derivatives. David’s deep, intrinsic knowledge and wisdom coupled with the highest level of integrity I have seen, are second to none. Kate provides a fabulous support structure during the 4-week program and beyond, ensuring participants' success in the markets. Thank you both for your care and detailed instructions.

      Geoffrey S – incredibly powerful courses delivered with care

      I had a very good experience with Wealthwise 'Invest for Success' share trading course. I highly recommend it if you're thinking about getting into the share market and doing it properly.  The course represents very good value for money, especially for the level of skill and education you receive from experienced investors who have been in the market for so long.  I found Kate and Dave to be excellent trainers and mentors. They put the effort in on a personal level, they took the time and patience to train me and ensure I understood the strategies they taught and how to apply them correctly.  I was hesitant to do the course at first because I didn't know what to expect but now I'm glad I did it!

      Chris P – excellent trainers – glad I did the course

      I've attended many programs with Wealthwise Education over the years and can attest to the integrity of the company and it's co-founders David Novac and Kate Sheehan. No hype, just loads of support and relevant information on various trading methodologies, technical and fundamental analysis, risk management and personal psychology. With all the 'noise' in the stock market training space today, I listen to and trust Wealthwise Education as my first choice. The education, support and community they have provided has been invaluable to my confidence in my trading know-how and personal growth. Thank you David and Kate.

      Susan R – Invaluable Education, Support & Community

      'Super Traders' week long workshop is an excellent way to increase confidence and experience in taking trades and repairing them to minimise risk in the event your view of the market changes. All this in a supported and supportive environment with like minded people.

      Bridget McG – Business Owner – on increasing confidence in option trading

      'Advanced Options Trading' is an awesome Wealthwise course. Thanks David & Kate for your generosity and patience in teaching me a formidable tool set for trading options.

      Tim W – Lawyer – on a formidable tool for options trading

      I knew very little about the stock market before attending the 'Invest for Success' course. I found the course excellent for improving my skills and knowledge. It was straight forward and easy to understand. I now have a new view of the stock market and increased confidence to invest in shares.

      Teagan R – on improving skills & knowledge

      Attending 'Advanced Option Trading' was a great opportunity to learn from option experts. Experts in the field but also great teachers. These two skill sets don't always go together. A unique opportunity - unmissable!

      Sue M, Retired Investor on learning from option experts

      I got outside my chaotic, noisy head into an organised, systematic and easy to follow Wealthwise methodology. Great for busy people like me. 'Invest for Success' is fantastic to build knowledge & confidence. It has saved me years of working out a lot of things ... a light bulb moment!

      Shiree G., Medical Sonographer on Wealthwise methodology

      David is a great teacher who is very generous with his knowledge. He is always happy to help with questions. Enjoy catching up each time and will be back again!

      A. Brabin, Analyst

      Invest for Success’ is the first step towards understanding a company’s financial position in relation to its share price. The skills learnt in the course will allow you to find good value in the market place. Excellent! Understanding the fundamentals of a stock also helps me to better trade the charts.

      Will B., Agronomist

      Excellent day spent with an expert who can demonstrate how to find value. With this knowledge it is now up to me to do the research, but now with a better understanding on finding value. Today reminded me why this is important knowledge – I want my life back and to be in control!
