The Native Financial Skills Initiative (NFSI) offers expert training from certified instructors with deep experience in Native communities, who are committed to empowering Native communities throughout the country. NFSI delivers an innovative and culturally-appropriate training program to help Native organizations establish and sustain successful financial education programs. In addition, the Initiative offers follow-up technical assistance that allows participants to take advantage of a one-on-one customized approach to help them reach milestones in developing and maintaining a financial education program in their Native community.

NFSI programs are offered several times each year at convenient locations throughout the country and via an online learning center. To register or to receive more information, including the dates and locations of upcoming courses, please contact:

Note:  Due to limited space and high demand, organizations will not be accepted into the program and continue to receive ongoing customized technical assistance unless they are committed to attend all the trainings and progress through the programmatic milestones as applied to their particular organization and community.
