Economics for Success (EFS) (previously a 1-day in-class program for grade 8 students) HAS GONE VIRTUAL!. Students learn basic financial literacy (create personal and professional goals, prepare a personal budget, interview scenarios and learn about career choices). A 1 hour virtual orientation and online self-directed training is provided. Volunteers deliver this workshop virtually to students in a grade 8 class. It can be done solo or with a partner.
The volunteer will join a classroom virtually, with a teacher present, to discuss the following lessons (approximately 1 hour):

1. Chose Your Own Adventure (goal setting, personal strengths/interests/skills and choices in setting educational and training).
2.Finding Balance (the cost of living, budgeting for living on your own)
3.Strategies for Success (may include tips on how to get and keep a job, how to present yourself in an interview, what is ‘networking’, why it is good to have a mentor, personal brand). The program can be further explored here: https://www.jacampus.org/

You will share your personal stories, experiences and career path with students and/or provide real-life examples to help them relate to the concepts. Optional: If you and the classroom teacher agree, you can schedule a follow up session (30-60 minutes) with students to complete the remaining program activities (some teachers opt to complete the activities themselves with students).

-Volunteers have the option to work independently or with a peer of their choosing
-Must register with JA Ottawa: https://jacan.thankyou4caring.org/ottawa/DEV/volunteer-opportunity (2 reference checks are required)
-Must have access to a computer with sound and video, in a private, quiet location with NO background distractions.

-Must be available for a follow-up session (30 minutes) if requested by the teacher.
-Commitment is for a minimum of 1 class; option to volunteer for as additional classes according to your availability.
