 | Member Spotlight! TACFEP Co-Founder Receives National Award
Paul Goebel, director of the Student Money Management Center at the University of North Texas, was selected by the National Financial Educators Council as the 2023 Financial Education Instructor of the Year. Since 2011, the award has honored one individual each year who has made exceptional contributions to propelling the financial wellness movement forward. The award was established based on NFEC’s understanding that educators have the single strongest impact on learner success. Paul was chosen as this year’s honoree due to his outstanding alignment with the three top award criteria – education, awareness, and sustainability. When asked what does the NFEC award means to him, Paul answered, "If an award presented to an individual can truly reflect the contributions of the many, this is the award. My success is the reflection of a team's success with the support of an entire campus community." |
