Junior Achievement of Utah has two experiential learning centers where students participate in an interactive, real-world experience to help them better grasp the challenges and rewards of adult life.
JA City
Programs
Our two experiential learning centers, the Spencer F. Eccles Junior Achievement City and the Woodbury Junior Achievement City, will host over 30,000 students annually! Located in downtown Salt Lake City, the Spencer F. Eccles JA City is located in the Discovery Gateway Children’s Museum, while the Woodbury JA City is located in Orem at the University Mall. Both are home to over 20 storefronts sponsored by many local businesses. Students bring these 10,000-square-foot learning facilities to life as they operate banks, manage restaurants, vote for JA City mayors, develop working budgets, and manage their businesses and personal finances. JA City programs promote 21st century skills including critical thinking, collaboration, creativity, problem solving, and communication.



JA BizTown
JA BizTown creates an unmatched experience where 4th-6th grade students are able to interact within a simulated economy and take on the challenge of fueling a business. Students not only discover the intricacies of being a professional and a member of a community but also discover an abundance of opportunities available within their city.
JA Finance Park
At JA Finance Park, students have the rare opportunity to experience their personal financial futures first-hand. 7th-12th grade students participate in an immersive simulation that enables them to develop skills to successfully navigate today’s complex economic environment and discover how decisions today can impact tomorrow.
