Email from a current InVEST teacher:
The InVEST Program has had huge success in my Marketing Education class. Excellent material is provide in terms of Teacher Instruction Manuals with lesson plans and Student Workbooks. I had one student earn an InVEST Scholarship of $500. Several students have continued their business and risk management studies in post-secondary education. Every year several of my students have parents that work in the insurance industry. One of the main benefits of the InVEST Program, is that students learn about exciting career opportunities in the insurance industry. Students also learn entrepreneurial skills in case study work as well as using technology to prepare marketing campaigns and sales proposals. InVEST also provides variety in the Marketing Education curriculum in a fun and interesting environment for students. I hope you strongly consider the InVEST Program for your school, and the best of luck in the implementation.
