Did you know that all students need to write a resume and interview for their position, before coming to JA BizTown? To help them with the process, we are creating videos, with tips to show students what a successful interview looks like! We've enlisted the help of Maeve Scheler, to show the difference between a good interview and a not so good interview. Maeve certainly is a great role model for this project! When she visited JA BizTown two years ago, she interviewed and was chosen for the Mayor! This is just one more way we are enhancing our JA BizTown experience! #JuniorAchievement #JASCPA #InspiringTomorrows #BeTheDifference #JABizTown

Junior Achievement - Inspiring Tomorrows
About us
In the past 57 years, Junior Achievement of South Central PA (JA) has become a cornerstone for financial and business education. Reaching over 100.000 students with the help of 8,000 volunteers in the 2018-19 school year, Junior Achievement addresses critical community needs through experiential, hands-on programs. JA's vision is to empower young people to own their economic success. Through participation in JA programs, students see the relevance of what they are learning in the classroom and its application to the real world, and recognize the value of an education. As a business-based nonprofit organization, JA relies on the involvement of local companies for both volunteer and financial support. Becoming involved in JA is an investment in the future of your community. In a few years, these same students will be employees in your company, residents in your neighborhood, and leaders in your community. Help JA inspire and prepare them now. JA of South Central PA merged with JA of Central PA, now covering 52 school districts and fourteen counties: Adams, Cumberland, Dauphin, Franklin, Juniata, Lancaster, Lebanon, Mifflin, Northumberland, Perry, Schuylkill, Snyder, Union, and York County. Of the 112 JA offices in the United States, JA of South Central PA ranks in the top 20.
