Online Simulation + Optional Deep Dive Sessions
JA Titan is a simulation-based program in which high school students compete as business CEOs in the phone industry, experiencing firsthand how an organization evaluates alternatives, makes decisions, analyzes the outcomes of those decisions, and then strategizes what to do next.
With a focus on financial literacy and insights into the workforce, JA Titan brings business economics to life. As students work in teams or on their own to make financial decisions about production, marketing, research and development (R&D), and corporate social responsibility (CSR), they begin to see how every choice made in an organization relates to its future success.
Following participation in the program, students will be able to:
Predict and identify various trade-offs based on business decisions.
Apply the profit equation.
Use a budget as a strategy to monitor income, expenses, and other financial records.
Express the importance of profit to the success of a business.
Describe why R&D and marketing expenses are investments.
Analyze how a company can be a good community partner and socially responsible.
This volunteer and educator-led program comprises 11 sessions that include tutorial sessions, game-play strategy sessions, a competition session, and deep dive sessions. Participants complete a minimum of 5 sessions, in any order. An optional event or in-class competition may be included. Spanish translation is available for JA Titan.

What to Expect
JA of Central Virginia is piloting this program this school year, 2024-2025.
By signing your class(es) up to participate, you're agreeing to complete the minimum five, in-class sessions and complete the educator survey after completion. We value your feedback to help grow this program across our region.
After requesting, JA staff will be in touch to set up a teacher orientation, so you can make the most of all the ways to customize the student experience, including setting up scenarios, increasing the difficulty, and creating a class bracket.

Look forward to a regional student competition in future years!
