Students starting their sophomore, junior or senior year in Fall 2023, there is a Financial Planning Academy, a weeklong overnight camp, July 16-21 hosted on the University of Missouri campus in Columbia MO.
This is a unique opportunity for your students to learn about financial planning and create a financial plan for a practice client. The program is designed to be interactive, and students will work as a team to tackle real-world financial challenges. The program will be informative, hands-on, and engaging, and most importantly, it will be fun! In addition to learning about financial planning, students will participate in additional fun activities, like a pool party at the campus rec center. Students will also get a taste of overall college life by staying in the on campus residence halls and interacting with college student counselors that assist each team of students.
The Financial Planning Academy is a weeklong overnight camp, from Sunday to Friday, for a price of only $150. This is an incredible value, as the actual value of the program is $900; we are able to offer it at such a reduced price due to corporate partners underwriting the event. The program is tailored to help students understand the fundamentals of financial planning, investment strategies, insurance, and overall wealth management.
Students will be given the opportunity to learn from professionals in the field of financial planning and participate in group activities and discussions. They will also receive personalized feedback from experienced financial advisors and mentors. The program is designed to help students develop financial literacy skills that will be useful throughout their lives.
