This two-day conference for Wisconsin Parochial & charter School teachers will provide you with information intended to help you develop a clearer understanding of basic economic principles, and offer insights on how the economy influences the lives of your students. Our experienced presenters are award winning economists who will discuss such topics as why some nations are rich and others are poor, along with the purpose of the Federal Reserve and much more. The seminar features engaging presentations, “hands on” activities, simulations, and discussions.
