The Junior Achievement Serbia has had a pleasant opportunity of hosting Ms. Courtney Gordon, the JAWW International operations director.

During this unofficial visit, a meeting was organized with Mr. Zvonko Brnjas, Ph.d., and Mr. Vladimir Medan, the Novi Sad Bank director and the JAS Managing Board member - which appeared to be a good opporunity to exchange the experiences and views concerning methods and models of work practiced in some JAWW member countries.

Also, a visit has been paid to the high school "Jovan Trajkovic" in Zrenjanin. A group of 22 JAS sttudents, together with their teacher, Prof. Ms. Biljana Grek, did have a lots of questions related to her experiences, primarily in respect to the subject "Ethics in business" implementation, as well as of those question in respect to her experiences whole working with students in countries with rather different or specific cultural patterns, like in Africa, or on educational system in the USA. We would like specifically to point out the students' openness and curiosity, as well as their very good knowledge of English language that was very much helpful in having quite a smooth commynication with the guest. Once more, we express our thankfulness to our hosts in Zrenjanin for their hospitality, with the message from Ms. Cortney:

" Thank you for the pancakes - those were so tasty! "
