The workshops will also feature an update on credit, review legislative efforts on the state and federal levels, and highlight new features of the HSFPP. The HSFPP consists of a six-unit curriculum and student guides that acquaint students with basic financial concepts such as financial planning, budgeting, saving, investments, credit and insurance.
