Congrats to the Spring 2024 Cohort of ASU Risk Management for Educators!

Join NGPF in congratulating the Spring 2024 cohort of participants for ASU’s Risk Management for Educators graduate course!  After having already completed NGPF’s Credit and Insurance certification courses, these participants were awarded scholarships to be able to take the graduate course with Arizona State University W.P. Carey School of Business because of their dedication to personal finance education. 

 

Here is what some participants have said about their experience:

"The course was great. Interesting lectures that made difficult concepts comprehensible."

- Rob Fetters in OH

"It was really a great setup. I learned a ton, the videos were a good length and other than a few minor hiccups with the way the things displayed in the portal it was perfect for a busy working teacher. Thank you for having such valuable opportunities for finance teachers."

- Kelly Gates in MI

"This was a wonderful experience that NGPF offered. ASU course fit wonderfully into my crazy, busy teacher life. They broke down topics in doable modules and incorporated videos and visuals-which is sooo helpful for this visual learner!! Risk management was an amazing course at ASU!"

-Cynthia Elliot in NE
