Featuring our speaker series, Current Events: Entering Year 5 of FinCap Friday, where Tim and Yanely will have a conversation about how FinCap Friday was developed and how it grew to reach over 2 million views. They'll also discuss plans for the upcoming year and give teachers a behind-the-scenes preview of Yanely's creative process.
