Would you rather tell students about the workplace or show them? We introduce students to careers through one-day, on-site orientations or through more extensive internships. Either way, it’s an authentic work-world experience for the students … enhanced with classroom preparatory and follow-up activities.

JA Job Shadow takes students into the workplace to learn about careers.

See the Scope and Sequence for a complete listing of program concepts and skills.

Be sure to visit the Resource Room for helpful links. See what JA students nationwide are doing as part of the Job Shadow program. To learn about other partners in the coalition helping to drive this program, please visit www.jobshadow.org.
