Junior Achievement Program

Today's Junior Achievement program - Our Business World -was phenomenal!

In Junior Achievement’s Our Business World program, elementary students explore how businesses are created and what makes them thrive. Using games and multimedia, students learn about innovation, start-ups and self-employment.

Volunteers from local businesses provide students with a first-hand look at how business supports the community. During this interactive, in-class program students :
  • •  Learn how to distinguish what is a business and what it is not.
  • •  Explore where customers come from and how to keep them.
  • •  Discuss how business contributes to the well-being of a community.
  • •  Recognize that businesses can impact the environment in both positive and negative ways.
  • •  Learn about the history of some Canadian businesses and how they’ve changed over time.
  • •  Understand of the importance of innovation.
  • •  Describe what makes an entrepreneur innovative.
