(MCPI) and the Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP), conducted a Training of Trainers (TOT) on Financial Education (FinEd) at the BSP Hub, Manila. The three-day program served as a platform for MCPI and BSP to equip participants with the skills and technical know-how to effectively deliver financial education materials to their staff and clients.

The participants engaged in interactive sessions covering five essential topics—financial planning, budgeting & saving, debt management, basics of investing, digital financial literacy, and adult learning principles. The training participants were also tasked to design and demonstrate their own training sessions for the different topics to consolidate their learnings in the TOT.

The training brought together 49 participants from 24 institutions, representing key players in the microfinance sector. Their active involvement highlighted the sector’s commitment to strengthening financial education and promoting financial inclusion across communities.
