About the Program
Financial Literacy Foundation’s Mission is to Prepare Today’s Students and the Greater Community for a Lifetime of Financial Responsibility. At the center of our FitKit financial literacy initiatives is the Personal Finance Certification program, a groundbreaking innovation in Personal Financial Education for College, High School and Middle School Students.
The goal of the program is simple—to help students graduate as financially capable young adults. Participating colleges, high schools and middle schools that offer our FitKit Programs or another Personal Finance Course and then administers our standardized Financial Literacy Certification Test are eligible to apply.
To support instruction, we provide instructional resources including a detailed curriculum, pre/post and unit assessments, PowerPoint presentations and original video content aligned with national and state standards.
