Also Introduces Instructor Certification Program
for
The Money Instruction Book
San Diego, CA - The Wall Street
Journal's advertisements in the eighties proclaimed:
"Money doesn't come with instructions" became
the inspiration for a new, very fundamental, personal finance learning curriculum from the
nonprofit Institute of Consumer Financial Education (ICFE),
called: The Money Instruction Book. The ICFE is an award
winning, San Diego, CA based, consumer group dedicated to
helping people of all ages improve their spending
practices, increase their rate of saving and use credit
more wisely.
The Money Instruction Book was created by ICFE executive
director Paul Richard, a registered financial consultant (RFC).
It is to be used either in the classroom or for at-home
study, and importantly it helps students learn how to KEEP
more of the money they make and DO more with the money
they keep. Both at home study users and classroom
participants who pass the fourteen chapter quizzes and a
final examination will receive a Certificate of Completion
from the ICFE.

The Money Instruction Book Is the second generation
personal finance curriculum for the ICFE, their first
personal finance curriculum was known as "The DOLLARPLAN:
Spending and
Savings Techniques for the 1990s". Over 500 individuals
nationwide have attended two day instructor training
classes put on by
the ICFE in the 1990s.
Over 250,000 consumers, of all age groups, are estimated to have attended
classes utilizing ICFE personal finance curriculum.
Instructors for the classroom version of The Money
Instruction Book are certified exclusively by the ICFE.
Instructor Certification means a qualified individual,
(usually teachers, financial planners, banking or credit
union officers) has completed the course itself in
addition to studying presentation and classroom techniques
covered in a separate independent learning guide. Each
candidate for the ICFE Instructor Certification must
successfully complete all fourteen quizzes in The Money
Instruction Book in addition to a final exam before they
are certified. ICFE Instructors have the flexibility of
presenting a selected numbers of chapters, which are also
available to consumers in booklet form, during a class or
the entire curriculum.
Classes and each of the chapters are enhanced by the use
of Power point presentations. Participants will learn
early on why everyday spending decisions, especially
credit based ones, will have a far greater negative effect
on their financial future than any investment decision
they will likely ever make.
