Whether you’re a returning advisor or just starting out, we’re thrilled to partner with you in building a dynamic, student-led SkillsUSA chapter.
To help you kick things off, we’ve refreshed essential resources and created new tools, all designed to set your chapter—and your students—up for success.
Start strong and launch your SkillsUSA chapter with confidence – from promotional posters, event materials, and classroom scripts to tools for engaging parents and school administrators. This checkpoint features planning guides, social media tips, and customizable templates to help you build awareness and establish a solid foundation for the year ahead.
Some materials are tailored by division (middle school, high school, college/postsecondary), while others are universal and can be used across all levels. Within each checkpoint, there are a series of tools with linked resources and ideas to guide you through each topic. We hope they make your chapter planning smoother and spark meaningful engagement from day one.
