CFEE aims to identify, and help impart, the fundamental concepts of economics, enterprise, entrepreneurship, and personal finance that must be factored into the decisions and actions we face in our day-to-day lives.

But, in addition to the "head," CFEE also recognizes the need to focus on the "heart" — the passion, the perseverance, and the commitment an individual requires to set goals and work hard to try to achieve them.

CFEE participates in a wide range of activities and partnerships to achieve its goal. As a non-profit, non-partisan, charitable organization, CFEE's partnerships span the political spectrum as we work in collaboration with all sectors. We help develop curriculum for the schools (e.g., we recently completed development of the new business studies curriculum in Ontario); we help teachers improve their knowledge and teaching techniques (e.g., we just completed four leadership forums to help train teachers); we produce print and multimedia resources for use in classes across the country (e.g., in partnership with Investors Group, we recently produced Money and Youth for use by teachers and students, and 70,000 copies are in circulation); we assist organizations wanting to help education, students, and teachers (e.g., we worked with the Canadian Bankers Association to produce and distribute a CD-ROM on entrepreneurship to all high schools in Canada); we assist government departments in their information and communication efforts (e.g., we worked with the Department of Finance on a booklet for the Canadian public on the debt and deficit issue); and we work at all levels of learning from elementary to college and to the general public.
