JA Inspire

Career Exploration Virtual Event

Login

Welcome to JA Inspire Virtual

JA Inspire Virtual is a virtual career exploration platform and much more; it brings together the business community and local schools and is designed to help launch middle and high school students into their FUTURE—high school, postsecondary education, and careers beyond.

VFairs, the online interactive platform used to host the JA Inspire Virtual career exploration platform, allows students to explore the 16 career clusters along with local exhibitor booths. Students are able to view webinars and presentations in the auditorium, visit an Activity Lab to explore more work and career readiness activities, and save documents and videos in their own virtual backpack to send home.

This engaging experience is a powerful way for students to learn about real-world career opportunities and their local economy. We hope students will feel INSPIRED to set new goals for high school and future careers after they complete this unique learning opportunity!
