This chapter describes training and development considerations for a university financial education program staff. Program directors may choose to outsource the training by hiring external professionals or hiring and training from within the college or university. Key questions to ask are posed in this chapter, such as what types of training support the financial education program’s mission? What changes in the external environment demand training and development of staff members? Which staff members need training and development and how much? What staff tasks need improvement through training and development? How can experienced program staff be used to mentor new student staff members?

A financial education program is only as good as the people who staff it. In order to get the right people on staff, careful attention must be paid to the strategy and execution of recruiting and hiring. Underlying the strategy is the determination of which staff positions are needed and how the roles will be defined. Various questions need to be addressed, such as: What financial resources are available? What types of services is the program planning to offer? What is the level of counselor content expertise? What is the type and size of facility where counseling will take place? How large is the program and who is the program’s target audience? With what other programs on campus is there possible opportunity for collaboration? The impact of a financial education program on a college campus is limited only by its implementation. Careful attention to the processes of staff selection is paramount in determining the early trajectory of such a program.

A financial education program is a means for decreasing or preventing the financial stress of students and should be seen by higher education administration as a worthwhile use of university monies. In this chapter, we suggest a range of collaborative ways for financial and other support from stakeholders within higher education institutions. We also provide suggestions on ways public and private sources can help a financial education program. The visibility of a program both within and outside the college or university is an important part of achieving your goals and enhancing outcomes.

The most frequently discussed financial topics are budgeting, managing debt and credit, and saving. The most frequently cited obstacles to providing premarital financial counseling are lack of time and lack of subject matter expertise.
