Setting Up a Club Education Program Using the NAIC Stock

Selection Handbook

Presented by Ken and Natalie Kavula

Mid-Michigan Chapter NAIC

Why is on-going education important?

• New members frequently join your club.• Experienced members benefit from

review.• All club members hear the same material.• Members become involved in their own

education.

Why involve the members in the presentation?

• No club member should have to do all the education.

• Members who take part in their own education become involved members.

• The club benefits from having experts.

What methods work well for club education?

• Dividing information into easily-digestible chunks.

• Assigning teams to make presentations.• Setting aside 15-20 minutes for education at

every meeting.• Occasionally having a club class.

Why use the NAIC Stock Selection Handbook?

• It’s easy to understand.

• It provides a structured

approach to education.

Who should direct the program?

• Ideally, the Vice-President is in charge of education.

• Your President could appoint a club member who agrees with the philosophy of the program and will check regularly with presenters.

• Your program will probably not run well without guidance.

What should we consider when setting up your program?

• Are most of your members beginners or are they experienced?

• Do you have several new members who need to be brought “up to speed”?

• Do you use the SSG to purchase and monitor companies?
