This hybrid professional development program features 150+ resources valued at over $200, including topics such as setting goals after high school, choosing a post-graduation path (higher education, training, career, military, etc.), applying to college and choosing a major, paying for higher education (loans, grants and scholarships), and managing debt.
Click here to watch a 1-minute video on the Richmond Fed’s Invest in What’s Next: Life After High School, a free online course also included in the program. Through interactive lessons, students explore their interests and related jobs plus budget for their education, among other learning objectives, culminating in a customized, downloadable action plan for their future.
Teachers also receive the Virtual Economics 5.0 flash drive ($164.95) linked here, featuring 14,000 pages of classroom-ready lessons on economics, personal finance, and entrepreneurship. (We typically on give this resource out at our 45-hour Institutes!)
