JA Job Shadow

JA Job Shadow is an educational program designed to give students real-world insights into various careers by observing professionals in their work environments. During a job shadow experience, students accompany a mentor—such as a business leader or skilled worker—through their daily tasks, gaining an understanding of job responsibilities, workplace culture, and necessary skills. This hands-on approach not only enhances students' knowledge of different career paths but also helps them make informed decisions about their future education and career choices. The program fosters engagement between young people and the workforce, bridging the gap between school and professional life.
