ALEXANDRIA, Va. (3/29/16)--There’s still time to register for tomorrow’s webinar on financial literacy, hosted by the National Credit Union Administration (NCUA). Titled “The Pathway to Financial Well-Being,” the webinar is scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. (ET), and registration is available here.

The webinar will present information on creating and enhancing financial literacy programs. A group of experts, including credit union officials, will describe financial literacy, financial inclusion and financial capability initiatives, and available resources.

Topics will include:

• The link between financial literacy and financial well-being;
• The NCUA’s financial literacy resources;
• Building a successful financial literacy program based on credit union size and member demographics; and
• Improving financial literacy efforts through local and national partners.

Promoting financial literacy is a core credit union mission, as stated in the Federal Credit Union Act.

The NCUA also participates in national financial literacy initiatives, including the Financial Literacy and Education Commission, an interagency group created by Congress to improve the nation’s financial literacy and education.

Friday marks the start of National Financial Literacy Month, and credit unions are already prepared with a number of resources to help educate members.
