During the fall, our talented female financial professionals take the lead in conducting classroom workshops on financial and investment literacy. These sessions are designed around a project-based curriculum where students step into the shoes of financial advisors, guiding their fictional client, Janella Sims, through financial decisions. Over the course of five sessions, participants learn about saving, investments, budgeting, stock and capital markets, and explore the diverse career opportunities within the finance industry
In Session #1, both students and volunteers embark on their journey with RTSWS by getting acquainted with the organization's mission. The session kicks off with a fun icebreaker activity, an introduction to personal finance and insights into the dynamic stock market.
