To develop an understanding of economics is to develop a deeper understanding of the world and how — and why — it functions as it does.
Economics touches all aspects of society, whether you are an entrepreneur trying to build a new business, a public servant formulating policy, or the head of a non-profit organization serving a need in your community.
Expanding your knowledge of economics and how its principles apply locally and globally is a valuable asset to any citizen, no matter your chosen career.
