鈥淲e are excited for this important work and research collaboration with NEFE. At Haile, we are committed to improving financial literacy in our community. Our efforts will help improve how we teach personal finance and increase access to financial education,鈥 noted associate dean, Abdullah Al-Bahrani.

The Haile College of Business will also create an evaluation to assist educators, policymakers and researchers assess financial education and knowledge.
鈥淭hese assessments will offer important insight into measuring financial education effectiveness. While more learners have access to a quality financial education experience than in years past, significant disparities in equity and access remain critical, specifically in K-12 instruction,鈥 says Billy J. Hensley, president and CEO of NEFE. 鈥淚t is important to create assessment and evaluation tools that assure educators and advocates can better understand the outcomes of financial education coursework and programming on students.鈥
