What if students could learn to make smart money decisions even before they leave the classroom? What if they could own their financial futures? Intuit Education puts real-world tools in students’ hands through its Financial Readiness program.
Real-world tools for future success
Help your students build for tomorrow, today. Using project-based learning, students cut their financial teeth in the classroom while setting themselves up for future success. That includes tools they may use to do their taxes in the future.
Developing habits to make it stick
See clear behavior changes take root in your students. What they learn in the classroom today can have a long-lasting impact on their financial futures, helping them to manage their money in the real world.
Giving back to build a stronger tomorrow
Mentoring is a great way to learn. Through our various strategic partners, students have the opportunity to mentor or teach within their communities or classrooms, solidifying their learning and knowledge by giving back and sharing with others.
What educators say
“Using Mint and TurboTax in the classroom has been incredible. By using these simulations, my students are engaged in hands-on learning using real financial tools. They are able to take what they have learned and apply it to real-world scenarios. As a teacher, it is exciting to see students equipped and confident to manage their own personal finances. It is rewarding to know that I am preparing them for their future.”
