Junior Achievement (JA) inspires and prepares youth to succeed by providing them with opportunities to learn financial literacy, entrepreneurship and work readiness skills. Through our proven, school-board approved programs, JA provides real-world experiences, important career connections and prepares youth grades three to 12 for the jobs of tomorrow. With youth unemployment at an all-time high, our mission is more important than ever before. JA’s programs present engaging and interactive ways for students to help build the skills employers seek. Through a network of education, government and industry partners, JA-NEO delivers programs in a vast region spanning Cornwall, Brockville, Pembroke, Kingston, Peterborough, Muskoka, Collingwood, Midland, North Bay, Sudbury, Sault Ste. Marie and Thunder Bay.
