It's that time of year again. Kids are getting back to the books, and if you're a smart parent, you will take steps to keep your own books in balance by looking for ways to save while shopping. You get high marks for it in a tough economy.

A new gateway to financial literacy for Canadians has been opened thanks to a joint agreement between the CAAMP Foundation, the charitable arm of Canada's national mortgage industry association and Credit Canada, a prominent player in credit education.

Today, Credit Canada and Capital One Canada launched the second annual Credit Education Week to more than 800 high school students from SATEC @W.A. Porter Collegiate Institute.

This year's Credit Education Week event, hosted by Credit Canada and Capital One Canada, will help teens get a grip on their finances using innovative and interactive techniques.
