Our Mission
 
To expand the Economic Literacy of Hawaii Students in Grades K - 12 by improving teachers' knowledge of economics and access to curriculum materials.

To increase the level of public understanding of economic issues.

Our Vision
 
A State of Hawaii whose people have the knowledge, understanding, and skills to make informed economic choices in their lives and for their community.


The Council achieves its vision by focusing on the teacher as the key to Hawaii's economic literacy. Over the span of a teacher's career, he or she can influence over 3,000 students. This impact is truly significant.

NCEE's mission is to help students develop the real-life skills they need to succeed: to be able to think and choose responsibly as consumers, savers, investors, citizens, members of the workforce, and effective participants in a global economy.
