What are some good financial literacy conferences?
Hey Guys,
I just answered this question from someone who reached out to me on LinkedIn; I thought this information may be helpful to you all as well.
What financial literacy conferences do you suggest attending? (specifically for higher education)?
Thanks for reaching out to me. The regional Jump$tart Conferences can be very good. Many people think they are tailored to K-12, but from my experience they seem to have a lot of participation from the higher education field as well. Also, all of these listed below are conferences which iGrad plans to attend this year.
