| Sumario: | From 2018 on, after the publication of the National Common Curricular Base in Brazil, there was a significant increase in academic research on Financial Education. However, there is a need for studies that define what Financial Education is and point out its different competences (literacy, critical and behavioral). Along this line, this text aims to investigate the different conceptions about Financial Education of undergraduate students. Our data was collected in a class of 22 students who were taking an optional Financial Education course offered at a private College institution in the city of São Paulo and organized and analyzed using the Collective Subject Discourse technique. The analyzes indicate that students associate Financial Education with the development of two skills, literacy and behavioral skills. However, one conception is prevalent, that is, it appeared more emphatically, which is related to the behavioral aspect of Financial Education, as the data show that students expect to learn a behavior, whether it is related to the organization or positioning on finance. Our study also showed that the different competences complement each other, and that the development of one competence can more easily lead to the development of the other. |
