Question # Question Answer

If questions are still allowed on the above – could you clarify if you are looking for courseware (an independent course a student does online) or course resources. We have a Personal Finance program with both print and digital that we would like to bid if it will be a teacher led course and you are looking for curriculum resources.

Courseware is preferred, this solicitation is not requesting textbooks only. This requirement is for courseware that is flexible to a variety of formats. See PWS Section 2.1.1 (#'s 1-11)

Please share if there is a current student nationally recognized certification being offered to students, if so, what is the rational for additional personal financial literacy credentialing and do the government have a preference?

The Personal Financial Literacy course is becoming a new graduation requirement for all DoDEA students whereas the Business and Personal Finance course currently being offered is infused within our current business pathway structure.

These two courses are independent of each other. There is currently no nationally recognized certification attached to the Personal Finance course as this is a new course. As the government does not endorse any particular industry certification it is only requesting a national industry certification for both teachers and students as stated in (PWS 2.1.2.2 and PWS 2.1.3)

Can the instructor certification be different than the students or both must be from the same organization?

Yes the teacher certification can be different while a preference would be the teacher's awareness of Personal Financial certification would help garner student's knowledge of said topic.

4 Is there a current face to face/classroom Personal Financial Literacy course? No, Personal Financial Literacy will be a new course offered in DoDEA.

5 Please share the student competencies for the Personal Financial Literacy course.

As this is a new course, Personal Financial Literacy course competencies are in development and will largely be based upon the national industry credentials attached to the course.

How is the Personal Financial Literacy course different from the Business and Personal Finance competencies? If they are different, which one is entry level/introduction and which is advance? Please share additional details to give us a better understand of the right solution the government is requiring.

The Personal Financial Literacy course will be primarily for personal financial topics without a business lens attached as it will be for all students across DoDEA and not only those interested in our Business pathway. These two courses are independent of each other. As stated in PWS 2.1.1, the government is requesting financial literacy courseware, 2.1.2 (1-4), the government is requesting professional learning to provide industry credentialing preparation for teachers while providing all stakeholders' webinars of the overview of the courseware and providing the teachers best practices for teaching personal financial literacy topics.
