Dear JCP Students,
We hope this message finds you well.
Please carefully review the following important information:
1. JCP Teams
Teams will be finalised once the registration period closes on Friday 20th February. Your team allocation will be visible on ClickUP by the end of day on Monday 23rd February.
If you have not yet been allocated to a team, please be patient. You will be allocated to a team early next week after registration closes.
Once allocated:
- Proactively connect with your mentor and team members.
- Verify that your team number on ClickUP matches your team number on the JCP website.
- If there is any discrepancy, log a ‘Website Query’ via the JCP Website to notify us.
Please note: If you are not registered for JCP by the end of the day on Friday 20th February (UP’s official final registration date), you will be removed from your team, as you will not be eligible to participate in JCP this year.
2. JCP Week Feedback Survey
All students are required to complete the JCP Week Feedback Survey, available on ClickUP and announced via the JCP website using the following link:
https://forms.gle/7BcZUuT2yN4ja6NW7
Your feedback is essential in helping us improve the module experience.

- Ensure that you use the correct template. The Final Budget Template is for the final submission due on 2 October.
- If your community partner is KEEP THAT GOLD SHINING (KTG), EBIT Week, or JSU, do not submit a preliminary budget, as this is managed directly by the community partner.

5. Communication Guidelines

- Do not reply to announcements or email module coordinators directly, as these emails will not be answered.
- Maintain professional and respectful communication at all times.
- Allow 48–72 hours for responses.
- Due to the large cohort (±2200 students), not all emails receive individual responses. If we notice common concerns, they will be addressed via announcements.
- For more information, consult Section 2.2 of the Study Guide.
We wish you all the best with your upcoming submissions and a productive week ahead.
Kind regards,
The JCP Team 🙂
