financial education
Learning about money
Financial education is learning how to manage money—budgeting, saving, investing, understanding credit, and planning for retirement.
Schools may offer financial education courses, but most people acquire it piecemeal from parents, mistakes, or self-study.
The company provides financial education workshops for employees.
Also called financial literacy when referring to the knowledge itself rather than the process of acquiring it.
