Junior Achievement (JA) is a partnership between the business community, educators and volunteers — all working together to inspire young people to dream big and reach their potential. JA’s hands-on, experiential programs teach the key concepts of work readiness, entrepreneurship and financial literacy to young people all over the world. This Year the High Schools in St. Kitts and Nevis came together for a trade fair which was held in Indendence Square. All of the secondary schools were represented at this highly successful event. Students from the Secondary schools and primary schools, the general public and Ministers of Government were also on hand to interact with the students.

It is hoped that the 2009 Junior Achievement Tradeshow will be even more sucessful.
