Our school, JA South Western Ontario - Head Office, partners with us to introduce young students to classroom experiential learning between Grades 4-12, using an online delivery method. The students can also learn online through self-directed education or participate in after school programs. Young people learn practical skills that they will use in their daily life. They learn how to budget, invest, and align their financial goals with their dreams. They can follow their passions and use their passions and talents to create viable careers. Students also learn how to communicate effectively and interview for jobs. Hands-on experience is given to the students as they run a business. Local business communities help students learn how to develop business strategies and manage businesses using expert advisors and mentors. This helps students develop business skills and the work ethic they need to succeed in their future careers.
