The Mission of the Center

 
The Center for Economic Education is located in the Department of Economics in  McElhaney Hall. The Center is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization affiliated with both Economics Pennsylvania (formerly known as the Pennsylvania Partnership for Economic Education and the Pennsylvania Council on Economic Education) and Economics America (the National Council on Economic Education). Its mission is to help upgrade the quality of economic education in grades kindergarten through twelve through teacher training, consulting services, research, and materials development. The service area covers Indiana and Westmoreland Counties. It is co-directed by Dr. James J. Jozefowicz and Dr. Stephanie M. Jozefowicz, both Associate Professors of Economics.
