Headrush is a versatile platform, offering many use cases for specialists and staff to integrate into their programs to improve efficiency and communication across teams. There are various ways you can use the platform:

The roadmap for the JAG competencies is there, enabling students to add their voices and choices to make each experience their own!

For Students, Headrush is the central hub for all things related to the JAG Career Association (JAGCA). Here, students can directly connect with national officers, gaining insights into leadership and national initiatives. Through Headrush, students in local and State Career Association chapters could work through the Program of Work (POW) Module, engage with the national officers through discussion, view the monthly live Zoom events calendar, and check out the national officer updates on ongoing projects and initiatives all in one place!
This month, the national officers will travel to Kansas City, MO, for extensive training on Headrush.
This training will equip them to effectively use the platform for student engagement in the upcoming school year. Beginning this fall, the national officers will use Headrush to share news, host discussions, and share their journeys, further enriching the student experience. These interactions give students unique opportunities to learn from their peers, gain inspiration, and actively participate in the broader JAG community.
Students can participate in JAG National Challenges through Headrush.
These challenges allow students to win money and prizes through monthly National Challenge competitions. Students are encouraged to learn about issues from local to global scales, engage in critical dialogue, identify innovative solutions, and take action as change-makers for a better world. Partnerships with industry leaders enhance these challenges, deepening students’ global understanding and workforce knowledge.
Specialists can learn more about Headrush via the JAG Genius or directly on the platform.
Completing the tutorials and training is essential for preparing Specialists to onboard students when the new school year begins. Headrush also provides comprehensive management of state initiatives, including staff professional development and team communications.
