Just before Carnival, there was something else to jump about for both UWI students and the Central Bank’s National Financial Literacy Programme. The first cohort (67 students from the Faculty of Social Sciences) from its Train the Trainer component graduated and received Certificates of Participation at the St Augustine Office of the Campus Principal, Prof Clement Sankat. Mr. Adrian Saunders, Assistant Manager, NFLP and Ms. Christine Sahadeo, lecturer, UWI were the lead organizers of the project, while Mr. Carl Morton delivered the training and was supported at each session by Ms. Narissa Lezama of the NFLP department.

Participants are trained as Trainers in key financial literacy concepts, with the understanding that they, in turn, will deliver financial literacy sessions to their colleagues.
