ORGANIZATION: JA of Georgia (Junior Achievement)

Junior Achievement of Georgia invites you to serve as a judge for our JA 2017 Quick Pitch Competition. Judges are apart of a 3-4 person panel. Judges review a high school student company's business plan and group presentation using a rubric to determine how much money JA should invest in the company. Judges also provide feedback about the company's business concept and the overall viability of their business plan.

The JA 2017 Quick Pitch Competition will be held Dec. 4th - 7th 2017 at host sites throughout Metro Atlanta. Ten student companies are currently working to establish a small business and will participate in this year's competition. The event serves a learning experience for students providing them with an opportunity to identify areas of achievement and improvement.
