The last week of January is Identity Theft Awareness Week: Take this opportunity to help your learners understand how to protect their personal information. MoneySKILL includes a dedicated module on identity theft that teaches students how to recognize risks, safeguard their data, and respond if their information is compromised. It’s a great time to incorporate this lesson into your classroom and spark conversations about digital and financial safety.

February is Career and Technical Education (CTE) Month: Many CTE educators utilize MoneySKILL to help students build essential personal finance skills that support their career pathways.
