Junior Achievement of British Columbia Student pages are developed as a result of participation in the Company Program or Student Venture program. The websites are 'live' during the time these student businesses are in operation, generally from September to June of each year. We apologise if some of these links are not live as local JA student company programs cease to operate during the summer months. Company Program – A Student Venture Be your own boss. Run your own company. Junior Achievement's Company Program - A Student Venture is the ultimate training ground for young entrepreneurs ages 15-18. JABC Awards & Scholarship Program Each year Junior Achievement of British Columbia (JABC) offers a number of awards & scholarships. Designed to recognize the outstanding achievements students have made throughout the school year, the Awards & Scholarship Program provides an opportunity for JABC to reward the efforts of our youth.
