NGPF On-Demand is a professional development opportunity that allows teachers to deepen their content knowledge on their own schedule and at their own pace.

One of the 32 On-Demand modules currently available is “Summer 2021: 4 Trends in Personal Finance.” In this module, you will learn about current trends in personal finance such as updates on credit scores & reports, the teen job market, investing by TikTok, and inflation. 

Here are two highlights from the module: 

• Learn about the teen job market by either watching a video, listening to a podcast, or reviewing an infographic. 

• Collaborate with other teachers to share ideas on how to creatively use Tik Tok in the classroom. Here is a peek at some of the responses:
