Junior Achievement Romania

Since 1993, Junior Achievement Romania implements programs to prepare students of all ages for success in the market economy. JA Romania is part of Junior Achievement Worldwide, USA and JA-YE, Europe.

Through JA Romania programs, young people experience different social roles and practice skills and attitudes required in the real market economy.

These practical modules are complementary to the core curriculum in schools and build opportunities for a strong connection between education and real life, intended to assure the success of young people in their career and life.

JA Romania involved annually over 180 000 participants in national and European programs.
