Financial skills in secondary education

Developing financial knowledge, skills, and habits is an important stepping stone on young people’s path to adult financial well-being. The Dutch platform Money Wise, in collaboration with the online training platform E-Wise, has launched the new online course Handling money: financial skills in secondary education. This online course is intended for secondary school teachers. Teachers learn, why it is so important to help youth develop the building blocks of financial capability at school. During the 3-hour online course, teachers obtain tools and resources that can help you teach financial literacy across the curriculum, even if you’re new to the topic.
