Starting with the principles of adult learning, participants will learn methods to animate financial education content in ways that resonate with target audiences. Participants will also learn techniques for managing challenging dynamics, ways of addressing important but often forgotten elements of financial literacy and strategies for creating effective ongoing financial education opportunities. The Academies will also cover assessing knowledge and skill attainment and training evaluation. Participants will leave with a toolbox of resources and training approaches for specific areas of content including budgeting, credit, investing, consumerism and asset protection.

The Academies are designed for staff of AFI grantees, subgrantees and their partner agencies who:
