Proposed Financial Wellness Curriculum

Empowering Wealth Financial Coaching Curriculum is engaging, drives participants to action, and meets core educational standards. The programming has been widely recognized for its ability to connect with students and inspire participants of all ages and socioeconomic backgrounds to take positive financial action. This proposed curriculum contains a summary description and an outline of what each course will cover. This curriculum is intended to not just help the participants but the goal is to help their families as well. The participants are expected to take what they learn and teach their family and friends. There will be a pre-test and post-test after each course. The results are then prepared in a case study report. The case study report can then be reviewed to measure the goals and objectives successfully. The case study report measures results and is able to demonstrate program impact.
