The Foundations at-home courses are designed to be flexible. They can be completed self-paced, or with a parent being more hands-on incorporating the supplemental teacher resources like the case studies, discussion questions, devotionals, etc. Time spent on the coursework will vary depending on the student's reading comprehension skills, how much time is spent on the testing, activities, devotionals and other supplemental resources you choose to incorporate.
Foundations in Personal Finance
The 13-chapter Foundations in Personal Finance High School Edition for Homeschool is usually completed in one semester (about 60 hours of coursework). Though it can be completed more quickly or stretched out for a year using the 39-week pacing guide included with the teacher resources. One chapter a week, spending about 4 to 5 hours a week, seems to be a good pace for most students.
