NGPF Extra Mile Award: Teachers Who Earned All 10 NGPF Certification Courses

 

This week, we continue to celebrate the achievements of educators during the challenging 2020-2021 school year!

Today's post focuses on teachers who have completed all 10 NGPF Certification Courses. 

NGPF offers online Certification Courses specializing in a single topic in personal finance. Educators strengthen their own content knowledge over 10 hours of professional development and are assessed through a 1-hour exam. NGPF Certified educators are more confident, qualified, and ready for their classroom. During the 2020-2021 NGPF Academy year, teachers earned 6,131 certifications! 

NGPF Academy recognizes and rewards educators who participate in NGPF professional development. Teachers track their hours on their My NGPF Academy portal on the NGPF website and earn NGPF swag and gift cards as their credit hours accumulate. Participate in your first NGPF virtual PD, complete an On-Demand module or crush an NGPF Certification Course and you are automatically signed up for the Academy.
