Evaluating Financial Literacy 101
Financial Literacy 101 allows you to provide critical financial education programs to entire populations of students, while also customizing the experience to each individual student. The is an interactive, multimedia experience that offers more than brochures, one-time lectures or simple web pages. In fact, as students complete the course, they write their own short and long-term financial goals, create a personal budget that is saved for later reference, and pass an exam that reinforces the most important points. In addition, students love the course with over 90% reporting that they would recommend it to a friend.
To take the course yourself and try the administrative tools, please download the document below - it has all the access information you will need (see the last page). One note - we suggest you take the entire course, not just the first part. It's only at the end of the course that the personal financial recommendations are revealed.
As you begin to work with with Decision Partners, we hope one thing is clear - we listen and respond to student and administrative feedback. Our course is never "done" - it evolves each year with more personalization, updated content, and more useful administrative tools.
