The Classroom version of the program includes a kit with printed materials, including a Student Portfolio and other activities. This type of delivery can be done by either a teacher or a volunteer. The digital content found here is intended to complement the printed materials and includes resources such as a digital presentation and presenter's notes. Your local JA office will coordinate the delivery of a Program Kit beforehand to facilitate this mode of delivery.
An enrollment code is required, and can be obtained by contacting your local JA office.
The Self-Directed version of A Business of Our Own can be used in two ways:
-
If you are a student and wish to complete this program on your own, then this option is for you. It allows you to self-enroll and work your way through the course at your own pace. Once you’ve completed the program, you will be able to download a digital Certificate of Accomplishment.
No code is needed to participate in the program independently.

If you are a teacher and wish to assign a JA program for your students to complete independently, then this delivery method is for you.
