Credit-Wise Cats Workshops
The CWC are trained and committed to delivering workshops to Tucson local K-12 classes, student clubs and organizations on and off campus. There are four core workshops which can be presented in 30-60 minute sessions. The workshops are based out of the Family Economics and Financial Education curriculum; therefore, they are activity based which keeps the audience involved and learning while having fun!
We are in the process of developing new workshop topics! If we currently do not offer the workshop topic you are interested in, please let us know the topic so that we can consider it as we work on new presentations.
