The NGPF Summer FinCamp Tour is Underway - 3 Reasons to Join us!

The NGPF Summer FinCamp tour is officially underway after kicking off in Ohio earlier this month. One down and nine cities to go! Keep reading to learn three reasons why Ohio attendees recommend you register for a FinCamp now so you don't miss out on this amazing opportunity. 

 

1. You'll get new ideas for using resources in the classroom

"Even though I have been using NGPF materials for quite a few years now, this camp still gave me ideas of how to use resources as well as giving me time to explore some of the newer features which I haven't had time to look at."

 

 "The FinCamp was a great experience. It was my first FinCamp and I will implement a lot more NGPF resources into my course."

 

"I am excited to teach this new class next year! There are so many resources so I can customize the course to best accommodate students' needs."

 

2. You'll have the chance to collaborate with other educators

"It was helpful to hear from other teachers in the field and what they experience in their school." 

 

"The content exploration was a great way to navigate through the website and all the sources as well as collaborate with other educators at my table on what we like and don't like and exchanging valuable resources and information. I loved every session!!"

 

"I have been teaching the semester course in NGPF for 2 years. Today was the first time I was able to see how another teacher would teach a lesson that I have already taught to see how different the delivery is and reflect upon that. Thank you so much!"

 

3. You'll leave feeling excited about teaching personal finance

"If you are able to attend the NGPF FinCamp you will not be disappointed. I had the privilege of attending the Ohio FinCamp and it was FABULOUS!! Thank you to everyone who had a part in putting this free event together for us educators, I can not thank you enough!!"

 

"The trainers were amazing. Their passion and excitement for this is contagious."

 

"It was an amazing 2 days absolutely jam-packed with ideas and wonderful collaboration with fellow PF teachers!! So much FREE content (and wonderful complimentary meals), it makes your head spin!
Don’t miss it if it comes to a location near you!!"
 
 
"This was a great workshop as always. You all go above and beyond to make us all feel appreciated and important. Thank you!"
