JA Inspire is more than a career fair: It brings together the business and local schools and is designed to help launch middle school students into their future - highschool, college, and careers beyond. During the JA Inspire expo, students participate in hands-on-activities, often using equipment or tools used on a job. The multi-hour experience is configurable to align with local industry and career opportunities. JA Inspire is recommended for 6th to 8th grades. It is a volunteer-led and educator-led program that can be classroom-based, remote-live, or after-school. The program is both classroom and event based and consists of three segments: In-class sessions presented by the classroom teacher, the hands-on JA Inspire expo, and an in-class debrief. This program can be combined with JA Inspire Virtual to meet the needs of educators, students, and volunteers.
