What’s a Cross-Walk and Why is it So Important?
NEFE HSFPP Correlated to Educational Standards in all Fifty States

When considering a curriculum for adoption into a school system, administrators and educators need to measure the program against state and national standards to make sure that the course under consideration addresses key measurements in their states. The process of doing this is called correlation, or "cross-walking".

School administrators and educators can immediately find out whether the NEFE High School Financial Planning Program (HSFPP) meets the educational requirements for their state, because the HSFPP has been correlated to educational standards in every state with financial literacy standards. In addition, it has been benchmarked against seven national educational standards in specific subject-matter areas. The HSFPP is the only financial literacy education program to have done this.

The HSFPP curriculum is built around seven target competencies, forty-three learning objectives and fifty-three learning outcomes. The target competencies and learning objectives are used in the standards cross-walks, which are outlined here.
