The EconomicsAmerica® Program is a comprehensive, standards-based program of the Council for Economic Education and its Network of affiliated State Councils and university-based Centers for Economic Education. The EconomicsAmerica® Program helps schools and school districts to (1) set standards, (2) train teachers, (3) develop curriculum, and (4) evaluate results, so that every student leaves twelfth grade with at least a basic level of economic literacy. The Council for Economic Education makes classroom-tested instructional materials available for all grade levels, and the State Councils and local, university-based Centers provide professional development courses and workshops for teachers as well as assistance to schools in the development of curricula. These materials and programs help schools meet state academic standards in economics, personal finance, and social studies.
