Massachusetts High School and Middle School teachers are invited to join us for this introductory webinar on how to prepare your students to compete in the 2021 MA Economics Challenge and the 2021 MA Personal Finance Challenge. School and student participation in both online Challenges is completely free, and there is no limit on the number of your students who can compete.

Learn more about how to register your teams, how to review the online participation dates and rules and how to use practice tests and CEE curriculum resources. In addition, find out about the 2021 MA student awards ceremony, and discuss how winning MA teams may advance to the next level of competition.

The Challenges offer a wonderful opportunity for your students to build their economics and personal finance knowledge, participate in a fun statewide competition and receive recognition for their achievements.   This webinar will be led by Dr. Margaret Brooks, Executive Director of the Massachusetts Council Program and State Coordinator for the 2021 MA Economics and Personal Finance Challenges.   Teachers are encouraged to bring their questions and ideas, and to start building their MA PDP credits through the Council for Economic Education (a MA certified PDP provider).
