3DE by Junior Achievement is transforming the high school experience by making education more relevant, experiential, and authentically connected to the real world. Through a customized instructional model, 3DE integrates rigorous, standards-based learning with case methodology, project-based learning, and career readiness experiences. Students engage with real business challenges, visit career sites, and collaborate with industry professionals – building the skills and confidence they need to thrive beyond the classroom.

At the heart of 3DE is a constantly evolving network of educators, business partners, and experiential design experts working together to create schools of tomorrow. This turnkey model can be integrated into traditional schools, enhancing curriculum design, teaching structure, and teacher development. The result is a dynamic learning environment that reflects the pace and complexity of today’s economy.

Volunteers play a vital role in this transformation. By sharing your expertise and guidance, you help students connect academic knowledge to real-world applications, develop innovative solutions, and grow into tomorrow’s leaders. Your involvement empowers students to see what’s possible – and prepares them to meet the future with purpose.

Empower students to see what's possible!
