Jump$tart National Educator Conference
Many teachers tell us that the real reason they introduced personal finance curricula to their students was for what they could learn themselves.
Don’t worry, not only is your secret safe with us; we’re going to help you learn even more! Sessions designed to help you improve your own level of financial literacy are an important part of the Jump$tart National Educator Conference.
Join us November 4-6, 2011 at the Hyatt Regency Washington on Capitol Hill. Registration for teachers is only $350: And that includes two nights’ lodging, meal events, and full participation in the conference. To learn more, please visit our conference website.
