Instead, financial education programs need to be well-planned, strategic initiatives that address the specific needs of specific audiences. The information needs to be timely and relevant to those who are participating in the program. This means that simply providing a generic curriculum, uniform content across audiences, or the same old articles simply will not work. Custom content is a critical component of effective financial education programs, much as it is essential to the efficacy of any successful educational program.

As importantly, content needs to be in a format that is going to be meaningful to the individual who is viewing or reviewing the information. Written information is invaluable but so are other formats such as video and audio. In fact, content needs to be portable so people can take the information with them or even have it delivered to them in a way that will engage them, resonate with them and enhance their experience. This trend is evidenced by the phenomenal growth in smartphones, tablet computers, as well as the ever popular iPad.
