w e i v r e v O JA COMPANY PROGRAMME I A d n a l a t i g i Established in 1919, our flagship initiative, the JA Company Programme, offers students aged 15-19 the D e opportunity to learn how to move a business idea from concept to reality. The programme provides t a r teachers with a series of learning-by-doing business, economics and entrepreneurship activities, a great e l e way to help students succeed in a global economy. Every year, almost 400,000 students enrolled in the c c programme, creating 30,000 mini-companies. By challenging the students to solve a problem in their A community through a business venture, the Company Programme unleashes their entrepreneurial spirit. Students experience running their own company (for one academic year), they discover first-hand how a d company functions and gain an insight into how their talents could be used to set up a business. By e v bringing business volunteers in the classroom to share their experience and mentor, students get a r e s better overview of career opportunities, what skills are needed to succeed and they start to consider r e d entrepreneurship as a potential career opportunity. n U e h t r e w o p m E s p i h s r e n t r a P e t a v i t l u C A J e n O n e t h g n e r t S 4 2 0 2 E - n e G s l a i c n a n i F e p o r u E A J t u o b A 2023/2024 Annual Report - JA Europe 10
