Hands on Banking Workshop Leaders' Guides Now Available on the NCEE Website
New York, NY (PRWeb) February 10, 2007 -- Workshop Leaders' Guides are now available free-of-charge through the NCEE website at http://www.ncee.net/handsonbanking/ for teacher trainers who wish to conduct teacher training workshops using Wells Fargo's Hands on Banking program for kids, teens and young adults. Wells Fargo, the nation's fifth largest financial services company, provided funding and collaborated with the National Council on Economic Education to develop these guides. The Hands on Banking program, offered in English and Spanish, is designed to explain personal money management in a way that is interactive, self-paced, animated and fun. The program is aligned with national and state standards for economics, mathematics and language arts.
The Workshop Leaders' Guides, which can be found at http://www.ncee.net/handsonbanking/, can be used to conduct teacher training workshops for teachers in grades 4-12. The guides cover the basics of how to navigate the Hands on Banking website (www.handsonbanking.org) and how to use the teacher's resource guide, online site, dictionaries, calculators and evaluation tools.
"We are delighted to offer these timely Workshop Leaders' Guides for the Hands on Banking program," said NCEE President and CEO, Robert Duvall. "Offering professional development resources -- for trainers and teachers alike -- is what we at the NCEE do best. Thank you to Wells Fargo, an exceptional partner in our mission, who believes as we do that all of our young people should learn economic and personal finance concepts in the classroom."
