Educators are important partners in bringing Junior Achievement's business education programs to students across BC. It is individual teachers and educators who choose to invite JA programs and volunteers into their classrooms. Their commitment to students - their desire to help them explore new opportunities and realize their full potential - provides the foundation for every successful JA experience. JA teachers provide classroom management support throughout the program delivery, and often become enthusiastic participants themselves. Please review our suit of programs below and sign-up for a program today.
