What is the JA Titan Challenge?
Using Junior Achievement’s high school simulation program, JA Titan, the JA Titan Challenge is a day-long competition which places high school students in the CEO seat to help increase their understanding of business. Young entrepreneurs are taught in an engaging way about the nuances of running a global business in a competitive, high-tech marketplace. Student teams of 2 have complete control of managing and operating their own virtual business and making key decisions. Companies (teams) are challenged to outperform the competition in profit, sales, and market share.

2011 Testimonials

“JA Titan Challenge taught me a lot, but not just about business. I learned the importance of good decisions making and the huge affect some sound advice can have.”
Lucas Brown, Don Bosco High School

“This program was fun. Competing against other students got competitive. Knowing different strategies for second round helped a lot.”
Bryar Hansen, Waterloo West High School

“It was a great experience for the students to have a mentor to learn form. They really appreciate it and I think you can make a large impact in a short period of time. This was a great experience and I would do it again in a heartbeat.” 
Alan Shakespeare, Wells Fargo
