Contracting Presenters

The Secretariat is pulling together a pool of presenters capable of delivering NFLP material at Lunch-and-Learn and other sessions in the Work Place and in communities. This core group of trainers will be contracted to deliver sessions to groups and organizations that make requests of the NFLP.

Delivering Sessions on Demand

So far, every group or organization that has requested a session or invited the NFLP to address their membership has been accommodated. As the demand has increased with the recent spate of advertisements, a combination of Secretariat staff and external presenters are being used to satisfy the requests.

Newspaper Articles

A series of articles on Home Ownership, use of Credit Cards and the Deposit Insurance Corporation were published. Subsequent articles will focus on sharing other financial consumer awareness information and tips of a financial nature.

Quality Control

An Editorial Committee has been established to review material produced by the Working Groups. The Committee will perform a quality control role with regard to the accuracy, reasonableness and clarity of the material.

Community Groups

Representatives of a few groups have approached the NFLP with requests to attend their annual general meetings to talk about the programme in the first instance then to talk budgeting and other topics. More recently the Secretariat has engaged the staff of the Ministry of Community Development, Culture & Gender Affairs and the Community Development Officers who have been convening group meetings in the communities. A number of these meetings were scheduled for July and August 2007.

Secondary School Pilot

The Consulting Interface Limited will be engaged to pilot their Secondary School products within the secondary school system in the September – December 2007 academic term. The Secondary School Working Group for the NFLP has completed preparation of material for the secondary schools aspect of the Programme. This material will be reviewed and packaged in a format that will be ready for pilot in the January – April 2008 school term.

Tertiary and Young Adults Intervention

Preparations are being made to deliver the regulatory material in modules to students in institutions of higher learning.

Primary School Intervention

Both TCIL and JAOTT will be contracted to continue their programmes in the primary schools until all the primary schools have been exposed. TCIL will be considered for the school year while JAOTT will be contracted for the first term in the first instance. Measures of success are to be determined for the primary school programme.
