On August 24, we successfully conducted the first teacher training session for Programme A and B, welcoming 92 dedicated educators. This comprehensive session covered essential financial topics designed to empower teachers in imparting knowledge to their students.
Key topics included motivations, attitudes, and behaviors related to finance, as well as practical subjects such as home purchase and mortgage arrangements, money and banking, and investment portfolios. We also explored critical areas like income and taxation, provident funds, retirement planning, and the principles of saving and investing.
Additional discussions focused on becoming a sensible investor, spending and credit management, and actualizing financial freedom. We addressed consumer rights and responsibilities, wealth creation and management, and the importance of financial planning. The session also highlighted teacher entrepreneurship and innovation in the workforce market, alongside the protection and risks associated with financial decisions.
The interactive nature of the training encouraged participation and engagement, leaving teachers inspired to apply these concepts in their classrooms. Feedback was positive, with many expressing enthusiasm for the impactful strategies they could bring to their students.
