Our In-House Financial Literacy Programs are designed for both senior secondary students as well as women in the workplace.
A full program for school students consists of four workshops at Year 10, three at Year 11 and two at Year 12, however, the content and duration of each can be tailored to meet the curriculum and timetabling characteristics of each school.
A typical school based program can look like this -
Year 10
Students at this year level focus on building practical knowledge and skills related to earning money and operating effectively in the the workplace. Topics generally include (but are not limited to):
Workplace Rights and Responsibilities and Fair Work Practices
Fair Pay and Having Difficult Workplace Conversations
Taxes, Levies and Superannuation
Financial Considerations in Starting a Small Business
Year 11
As students start to manage their own income and expenditure on a more regular and independent basis, module content is focussed on the concepts of spending, ownership and debt, including:
Budgeting, Banking and Opportunity Cost
The Real Cost of Owning Stuff
How to Avoid the Debt Trap
Year 12
Before leaving school, Year 12 students learn how to maximise the effect of the money they will earn and to safeguard the assets they accumulate. Modules for final year students focus on:
Options for Wealth Building
Asset and Personal Protection
Delivery can take place in either presentation or workshop format.
For women in the workplace
The content and delivery of workshops for working women is most often informed by life-stages. Younger groups often choose to focus on managing revenue and expense streams, as well as understanding and exploring investment and savings strategies while older groups often request a focus on tax structures and planning for retirement.
Whatever the life stage of the group you work with, we’d love to help help empower the women you’re planning for - send us an enquiry if you’d like to learn more.
