History of financial education in schools

We provide financial education to youth to help them become financially responsible adults. Our presentations are piloted & continually revised each year.

2012 - 2015

We launched our first financial literacy program for schools (for free) in April 2012!

By the end of 2015, we were providing free programming to Grade 4 students and high school students year-round and across the province.

 

2016 - 2018

We continued to expand our free school programs. In 2016, we offered financial literacy programs to all grades year-round and across the province. Additionally, we launched our first online program for high school students and released downloadable extension activities for teachers, parents/guardians, and students!

 

2019 - 2021

The COVID-19 pandemic had us quickly shift our in-person programs to virtual programs. Teachers and parents/guardians used our extension activities to give students an opportunity to improve their financial literacy (all while they stayed at home to keep safe).

 

2022 - 2023

We are proud to continue to offer free in-person, virtual, and online programs for all grades and across the province. With the implementation of new curriculum, we’re excited to have new programs that engage students in financial literacy and help them on their journey to become financially responsible adults.
