Relevance to the CTE Field: Career and Technical Education (CTE) equips learners with the skills needed for successful careers, and financial literacy is a crucial part of this readiness. By integrating personal finance education into CTE programs, this workshop supports educators in preparing students for real-world challenges. It empowers students to make informed financial decisions as they transition into the workforce and helps professionals strengthen their financial stability as they advance in their careers. This alignment with CTE’s focus on practical, career-focused learning enhances both personal and professional outcomes.
Value to Participants: For Educators: Gain resources and strategies to teach financial literacy within CTE curricula, enhancing students’ preparedness for life beyond the classroom.
For Students: Build essential financial skills—from budgeting to investing—that complement technical training and promote independence and confidence in managing money.
