Let's give a round of applause for the 23 teachers who became NEW NGPF Distinguished Educators after completing Cohort 47 Certification Courses. There are now 1,142 NGPF Distinguished Educators as of writing - an elite but growing club! Read on to see who made the list.
The NGPF Distinguished Educator Award is a lifetime award that educators earn by passing six NGPF Certification Courses in finance topics such as Cryptocurrency, Investing, Paying for College, and more. Not only do you get a digital badge and bragging rights, but also a beautiful plaque to hang in your classroom.
EACH of these NGPF Certification Courses is comprised of 9 hours of instruction and a 1-hour certification exam. That means everyone on this list has completed 60+ hours of professional development. That commitment to learning spills over to helping students be as best prepared as they can be to tackle financial challenges.
If you would like to see your name on this list, register now for Certification Course Cohort 49, which starts November 11.
