The Museum Finance Academy (MFA) is a FREE five session personal finance certificate course for 11th and 12th graders with the goal of teaching students to aspire to financial independence through developing an appreciation for savings, establishing financial goals and learning to avoid scams.
In Fall 2024, two sessions will be held over zoom on consecutive Tuesdays: October 15, 22, 29, November 5 and 12. Students may register for the session from 4:15–5:30pm Eastern Time OR 4:45–6:00pm Central Time. Students will attend the selected session time for the duration of the course.
A zoom link will be provided to students prior to each class. Students are expected to attend all five sessions and keep cameras on during the sessions. This course requires NO prior knowledge of finance, business or economics. The top four students from each session will be awarded a partial college scholarship ranging from $500 to $1,000.
The Museum is thankful to Con Edison for its continued support of this program.
