For the past 65 years, our mission has been to instill in young people the fourth “R”—a real-world understanding of economics and personal finance. CEE delivers its core mission of teaching K–12 students through professional development of teachers, providing educators with instruction in content and pedagogy, and developing engaging content in personal finance and economics. The National Economics ChallengeSM furthers the CEE’s mission of strengthening the economic and financial education of students from kindergarten through high school.  \nnational eConomiCs ChallengesM  \nThe Council for Economic Education created the National Economics ChallengeSM in 2000 to promote student interest in economics, reinforce classroom instruction, advance academics and school spirit and reward scholarship. In 2014, more than 10,500 high school students participated in 40 states nationwide. The National Economics ChallengeSM is one of several key initiatives in the CEE’s “Campaign for Economic Literacy” which seeks to focus public attention on the importance of economic literacy and the need for a high-quality, standards-based economics curriculum in every state.  \nIn the National Economics ChallengeSM, CEE applies the excitement of an athletic competition to academic excellence, providing students with the opportunity to apply their economics knowledge and work in teams. Competitions are held at the State, National Semi-Final, and National Final levels in two divisions: The Adam Smith Division challenges advanced placement, international baccalaureate and honors students; the David Ricardo Division challenges single semester general economics students.  \nIn each competition, teams of students answer rigorous questions on microeconomics, macroeconomics, international economics, and current events. At the National Finals, students complete rounds of testing, work in teams during a critical thinking round to solve a case problem, and participate in a quick-paced oral quiz-bowl to compete for the title of National Champions.  \nThe four finalist teams face each other in the final round of the National Economics ChallengeSM in a “quiz-bowl”format held in New York City. Each team must have previously won in its state and been one of the top four highest scoring teams at the National Semi-Finals competition in order to advance to the championship series.  \nnational economics ChallengesM-about the Challenge  \nComPetition rules  \nCEE’s National Economics ChallengeSM Rules and Eligibility are available on CEE’s website: [www.councilforeconed.org/econchallenge](www.councilforeconed.org/econchallenge.
