Informative,
interactive, fun were words used to describe two National Cooperative
Credit Union Limited seminars held on Tuesday, April 11, 2017 for just over
200 secondary school students
At a financial literacy seminar held at the Public Service
Union, 100 fourth formers from the Dominica Grammar and Convent High Schools
were introduced to the basics of managing money.
Among topics covered were
financial behaviour, wants vs needs, goal setting, budgeting , saving,
borrowing and making the right
choices.
The students also received information on NCCU, joining the
Credit Union and products and services for youth.
At the second seminar held at the CHS auditorium, just over 100 fifth formers enjoyed a session
on leadership, goal setting, NCCU, membership, education and other loans.
Miss Dominica 2017 and Miss NCCU, Jade Romain, presented to
the students at both the seminars. She emphasised
that that they are unique and encouraged
them to study, work hard, remain focused and set goals to realise their
potential ,
Both sessions were very interactive and well-received. The students
had the opportunity to win lots of prizes.
