Need Help?
Checkout our most frequently asked questions:
What’s the difference between Open Access and JA supported programs?
a. Shorter programs don’t always require an enrolment. Instead, clicking on those programs takes you directly to their landing page, where you can start the program when ready.
b. Meanwhile, longer programs often require enrolment, which can only be completed after you’ve created an account and signed in.
c. The biggest difference between the two, aside from length of the programs, is that open access programs will not track or store your progress. Enrolled programs, meanwhile, will often track progress and allow you to resume at a later date.
Do I need to create an account to access programs?
a. No you can access the programs that do not require sign-in or create an account to access all programs including those that indicate sign-in required. Teachers will need to contact their local office to request a code to access the program resources.
How do I create an account (JA ID)?
- Click the sign-up button in the top menu
- From the pop-up window, select Sign-Up
- Complete the form with your name, email and school
- Look for a confirmation email from Okta with your JA ID and click the link in the email to complete your registration
- Return to the JA Campus and use your email and password to login
Do my students need to enter their personal details like email addresses in order to access the Campus?
No you can contact your local office and they can provide you with pre-assigned non-identifying logins.
How much do classroom programs cost?
All JA programs are available at no cost to teachers and students. Programs are funded by JA’s partners who believe in our mission to equip youth with the skills to succeed.
