JA Economics for Success reveals the heart of a successful economic life: choosing the right career and managing money properly.

Following participation in the learning experience, students will be able to:
  • Develop the personal-branding and job-hunting skills needed to earn a job.
  • Research potential careers.
  • Create a basic resume.
  • Recognize appropriate behavior for an interview.
  • Differentiate between soft and technical skills.

JA It's My Future is part of the JA Work and Career Readiness Pathway and is recommended for middle school students (grades 6-8)

This volunteer-led program can be implemented as a classroom-based, remote synchronous, or after-school program. It includes six 45-minute sessions, with additional extended learning activities and optional digital assets offered throughout.

JA teachers and volunteers are encouraged, as part of this program, to utilize the resources available in JA Connect™ Learning Pathways, located at connect.ja.org. This self-guided experience includes interactives, JA Digital Career Book, games and apps for student use.

JA programs support national and state standards in reading, mathematics, social studies, and work and career readiness. See below for more information on alignment with national and state standards.
