Students Learn About Money & Investing Using Online e-Learning Network

March 26, 2010 - PRLog -- The next generation of Americans will face unimaginable financial obstacles, therefore according to the United States Treasury “students need to learn more about financial and money matters at the earliest age possible.”  Many parents, schools and teachers that interact with students daily, say that they are overwhelmed with just providing them with a basic education consisting of a core curriculum of reading, writing and math.  Many are ill prepared to provide students under their leadership with the financial skills they will need to succeed.  However according to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) “providing students a good financial education has become a necessity, rather than an option.”  To help make it easier to provide students with a quality financial intelligence education, Future Investor Clubs of America (FICA) has developed the Financial Whiz Kids and Teens e-School online training program.  The FICA Whiz Kids and Teens e-School, has 12 e-learning training portals that provides parents and teachers with all the interactive financial education tools required to have a quality training program. Each online e-learning training portal contains animated characters, curriculum, lesson plans, links, quizzes, videos, worksheets and more!

According to lead project developer Mr. Ryan Parks, “during the development process a considerable amount of time was taken to provide subscribers with a comprehensive, yet easy to use online e-learning interface that covers every financial education topic that students need to learn.”  The animated characters, videos, lesson plans, links and worksheets are all carefully designed to enhance the learning process, while keeping students focused on the training.  Gaining access to the Whiz Kids and Teens e-School online training system is easy, requiring subscribers to only have a user name and password.  Subscribers are allowed to select from several comprehensive e-learning financial education topics such as: Mantis Money and Math, Young Investors Training Kit, Young Investor Clubs Network, Banking, Dream Planning, Financial Training and more!  “Our financial education online e-learning training system is an awesome way for parents and teachers make sure their student(s) are ready for the financial world says Mrs. Cassandra Perkins, Vice President of Program Development.  

According to the Federal Reserve Bank, “the average student who graduates from high school lacks basic skills in personal money management.  Many can’t balance a checkbook, and have no understanding of basic concepts involved with earning and spending money.”  For parents and teachers seeking to introduce students to personal money management and a financial intelligence education for the first time, Mr. Frank Parks, President of Future Investor Clubs of America and a 25 year veteran investment advisor, makes the following recommendation, “I would advise all parents and teachers to approach financial education slowly and with an open mind. Initially provide students with comprehensive basic financial introductory training and then expose students to more advanced training applications.”  Mr. Parks goes on to say that “FICA has two great e-learning starter portals that’s great for beginners, those being Mantis Money and Math and the Young Investors Training Kit.  Both of these training portals are excellent and are used as part of our Basic Financial Intelligence Training system.”  

FICA Mantis Money and Math is an interactive e-learning training portal that was carefully designed to provide subscribers access to critical thinking money and mathematical training applications.  Mantis Money and Math includes training on such topics as banking, history of money and saving money. In addition students explore, calculating money, counting money, credit cards, debt, loans, real life money skills and more.  Once students have completed the Mantis Money and Math online e-learning training system, Mr. Parks, who has personally trained thousands of students and teachers nationally, recommends continuing the student’s financial education with the FICA Young Investors Training Kit.   “It’s one of our primary basic financial intelligence training curriculums and is a great next step.”  

The FICA Young Investors Training Kit e-learning portal includes an instructors area and nine interactive training sections such as: Financial Terminology; Insurance and Banking; Financial Planning; Investment Terminology; Investing In Stocks; Annuities, Bonds, and Mutual Funds; Online Trading and Financial Web-Sites; Career and Credit Management; and Starting An Investment Club. Each financial education training section takes approximately 1-3 hours to complete depending on the reading, writing and math level of the student(s).
