Schedule a Financial Education Workshop this Fall!Financial concerns are among the most common reasons students drop out of college before completing a degree; clearly, financial education is vital to both personal and academic success. If you're looking for options to help your students learn money management skills in a fun and entertaining way, consider scheduling a free OKMM workshop! OKMM is Oklahoma Money Matters, the financial education initiative of the Oklahoma College Assistance Program and the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education. OKMM provides college students with relevant, applicable information and materials to help them make wise financial choices during their college years and beyond. In our workshops, students learn budgeting methods, practical ways to save, how to manage credit and avoid identity theft, and how to borrow student loans wisely. We also offer instructional resources that can enhance the financial education you're already offering, including interactive money management tools, self-paced online learning modules, newsletters and podcasts. Visit OklahomaMoneyMatters.org to learn more. To schedule an OKMM workshop on your campus this fall, or for more information about how we can help you incorporate personal finance education within your existing service structure, please contact Oklahoma Money Matters at 800.970.OKMM or oklahomamoneymatters@ocap.org.
