Each One, Teach One

Financial Literacy Workshop Series

 

 

Each One, Teach One (EOTO) is a financial literacy program designed to deliver financial workshops in community settings, with the goal to help people from all walks of life better understand financial topics.

The approach to EOTO is for trained individuals to go out into the community; to schools, community groups, libraries, new immigrant centres, and more, meeting people where they are, delivering free financial information in simple and easy to understand language. Absolutely no products or corporate information is promoted in these workshops.

These workshops can be delivered to groups small and large. One workshop is typically one hour and are presented in English, using simple, accessible language and terminology.  EOTO workshops are presented across Canada by trained Credit Union staff.  Revelstoke Credit Union is pleased to have five staff members trained to deliver these workshops in our community.

To make a request for a workshop for your group, please contact us.
