Think about an important financial decision you are glad you made.
What helped you decide?
Financial decision-making is a skill students can learn and practise.
Get Financially Fit gives educators practical resources to help students build that skill.
Teaching financial literacy isn’t simply about finding information.
There is a lot of information out there. The challenge is knowing what to teach, how to teach it with confidence, and what will resonate with students as they learn to make informed financial decisions.

EXPLANATION
What if students faced the decision before being given the answer?
The Financial Decision Inquiry Framework™ (FDIF™) is GFF’s structured approach to inquiry-based financial learning.
Learners encounter a financial situation, investigate information, consider alternatives and make a decision before the teacher supplies a conclusion.
For educators, FDIF™ provides a structured way to guide that learning — helping move the classroom conversation from “What is the right answer?” to “How did you reach your decision?”
