JA Global Marketplace is part of the JA Work and Career Readiness Pathway and is recommended for middle school students. It consists of seven 45-minute sessions and offers two implementation options:
-- Basic implementation includes Sessions One-Six delivered by the volunteer.
-- Advanced implementation includes Sessions One-Six delivered by the volunteer and Session Seven delivered by the teacher or volunteer.
The program is a blended program, available in classroom-based and remote synchronous implementation.
JA teachers and volunteers are encouraged, as part of this program, to utilize the resources available in JA Connect® Learning Pathways, located at connect.ja.org. This self-guided experience includes interactives, JA Here to Career, games and apps for student use.
