About SDCEE

The San Diego Center for Economic Education (SDCEE) at Cuyamaca

College is a leading provider of resources for economic and

financial literacy education. When economics became a high school

graduation requirement in California, SDCEE stepped up to support

educators with resources for teaching these essential subjects. Over

time, we have expanded our offerings to include financial literacy

resources and support for a broader range of students, including

those in K-12 schools, college students, and adult populations.

SDCEE provides comprehensive materials specifically designed for

high school economics courses, ensuring that educators have the

resources needed to meet graduation requirements and deliver

high-quality instruction. Additionally, SDCEE offers resources for

integrating economic and financial literacy topics into other

subjects, such as history, mathematics, business, and government,

helping teachers embed these important concepts across various

disciplines. To further support educators, SDCEE also conducts

financial literacy sessions aimed at improving their own financial

literacy, empowering them to better teach these skills to their

students.

Beyond supporting educators, SDCEE delivers direct financial

literacy instruction to school-age and college students, including

current and former foster youth, as well as to young people and

their caregivers. Through tailored programs and workshops, SDCEE

ensures these groups gain essential financial skills for their

personal and professional development.

By bridging these two areas—dedicated K-12 course materials

and interdisciplinary resources—SDCEE plays a vital role in

preparing individuals to thrive in both local and global economies.
