JA Company Program

With the support and guidance of volunteer consultants from the local business community, the JA Company Program provides basic economic education for high school students. By organizing and operating an actual business enterprise, students not only learn how businesses function, they also learn about the structure of the U.S. free enterprise system and the benefits it provides.

JA Company Program helps young people appreciate and better understand the role of business in our society.

See the Scope and Sequence for a complete listing of program concepts and skills.

		Each JA Company Program kit contains a plethora of resources, including a handbook for teachers and volunteers like the one seen here.  For more info about this program, read the program summary. To learn more about receiving this program in your area, contact your local JA office.
