LAS VEGAS, NV (March 5, 2020) — One Nevada Credit Union, the title sponsor of Nevada Interscholastic Activities Association (NIAA), has launched Cent$ibleStart, their new financial knowledge program to help NIAA student-athletes and their families build financial strength and stability. The announcement was made Friday at the NIAA / One Nevada State Basketball Championships and at the annual Nevada Athletic Director Conference.

Cent$ibleStart is a new, digitally-driven, financial knowledge program provided free of charge to NIAA student-athletes and their families. A key component of the partnership is providing real financial knowhow through over 50 different engaging and informative financial modules that can be consumed in just 3-6 minutes each.

Courses are available in both English and Spanish and they are designed for use on mobile, tablet, or desktop devices.
