State Farm is sponsoring a Chapter Management Institute (CMI) that will provide instructors with the tools they need to develop, manage and advise a SkillsUSA Chapter in their school or classroom. Participants explore the mission of SkillsUSA; learn to use the multitude of resources available and engage in hands-on activities. The training utilizes interactive sessions and provides answers to questions such as: How do I get students involved? What is the best way to organize our activities? What does a chapter set out to do? What is a Program of Work? What materials are available to help students? This is a must for beginning or novice advisors wanting to start a chapter or better manage an existing chapter.

Take advantage of this low-cost training to learn how SkillsUSA can help your students to succeed – on the job and in life. The training will be held on November 18 from 1:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. at Tennessee State University – TSU Avon Williams Campus, Room 313, 330 10^th Avenue, North, Nashville, Tenn.

Training and materials are free to participants. There is a $30 registration fee to cover evening meal and breaks. Note: Bus transportation from Gaylord Hotel 9 Delta Entrance) to TSU is available for an additional $20.00.
