Course Description
FINANCIAL LITERACY CERTIFICATION PROGRAM:

Based on the NEFE (National Endowment for Financial Education) Financial Literacy and CARE (Credit Abuse Resistance Education) Programs, this course guides participants to take action and increase their financial IQ.

Linked to education standards in all 50 states and to several national subject-area standards, this program is typically taught in 7 units. Each unit is bult around a target financial competency.

  • Your Financial Plan: Where It All Begins (160 min.)
  • Budgeting: Making the Most of Your Money (115 min.)
  • Investing: Making Money Work for You (125 min.)
  • Good Debt, Bad Debt: Using Credit Wisely (130 min.)*
  • Your Money: Keeping It Safe and Secure (160 min.)
  • Insurance: Protecting What You Have (135 min.)
  • Your Career: Doing What Matters Most (140 min.)

    • DURATION: Approx. 16 hours

    * Add 2-3 hours if combined with CARE

    THIS PROGRAM IS FLEXIBLE. The 7 units can be taught as a complete course, taught independently, or taught in conjunction with other resources (e.g., Unit 4 is compatible with the CARE Program). Additionally, these units can be adapted for and integrated into broader-based programs, such as business planning, career management, and entrepreneurship boot-camp, or customized for such audiences as adults, teens, retirees, job-seekers, or artists.
