Seminar Series in Financial Literacy

The Center for Financial Literacy and Education in the College of Business and Economics in conjunction with the West Virginia University Retirees Association presented a Seminar Series in Financial Literacy to empower WVU retirees to make sound financial decisions. 

The seminar series was designed to offer retirees valuable information regarding their own personal finances through an interactive learning environment that armed participants with the ability to plan for their futures and fully understand the scope of their financial decisions. 

The series consisted of five modules specifically designed with the retiree in mind that offered insight from professionals working in the Morgantown area who answered questions about financial decision making in retirement. 

The five-module series was offered beginning on January 25 and continued in two week intervals through March 22.  Naomi Boyd, Chair of the Department of Finance and Director of the Center for Financial Literacy and Education, started the first module of our five module series
