Welcome to LifeSmarts

LifeSmarts is a great way for adults to demonstrate their commitment to consumer education, and to young adults. As an interactive educational program, LifeSmarts teaches high school and middle school students the skills they need to be consumer savvy in today's marketplace.

Across the country, coaches are preparing LifeSmarts teams to compete against worthy opponents in their state, with the goal of winning the state championship and ultimately representing their state at the annual LifeSmarts National Championship.

NOTICE:

Please visit the new Rules and Release Forms page for new competition information, rules and forms, current as of January 4, 2010.

How does LifeSmarts work?

With the support of a coach, students form teams, practice, and then they come to this Web site to compete online in the areas of personal finance, consumer rights and responsibilities, technology, health and safety, and the environment.

Qualifying teams are then invited to an in-person state competition, which is run in a game-show format, where teams compete for the title of state LifeSmarts Champion. State champions are then invited to compete at the LifeSmarts National Championship.
