Enter your high school students in the 2009 National Economics Challenge, sponsored by the Goldman Sachs Foundation.

The Challenge encourages students to apply their economics knowledge, work in teams, and is not only fun but offers prizes. There are two divisions--the Adam Smith Division for students currently taking an Advanced Placement, International Baccalaureate, honors, college level, or two-semester class, and the David Ricardo Division for students enrolled in all other general economics or one-semester economics classes.

Begin by entering your state-level Challenge. The winning teams from both divisions of the state competitions will advance to a regional round. The regional winners and their teachers will each receive $1,000 U.S. Savings Bonds, and the runner-up teams and their teachers will each receive $500 U.S. Savings Bonds.

The winning teams from both divisions of the four regional competitions will advance to compete at the national finals in New York City on May 16-18, 2009. Each member of the national championship teams and their teachers will receive $3,000 U.S. Savings Bonds, and the runner-up teams and their teachers will receive $1,500 U.S. Savings Bonds.

Most travel expenses for the national and regional competitions will be paid by NCEE.
