SkillsUSA is a student-led organization, and that shines through when chapters hold a SkillsUSA Recruitment Week. The week is designed to empower chapter leaders to recruit potential new members through a series of activities and events that promote SkillsUSA throughout their school.
Below, you’ll find links to a series of both Advisor and Chapter Leader resources to help you plan and conduct your own successful SkillsUSA Recruitment Week. Show your friends, colleagues and classmates why you love SkillsUSA and why joining SkillsUSA is one of the best decisions a student can make on the road to personal and professional success.
Once you’ve conducted a successful SkillsUSA Recruitment Week, let us know by submitting your info through our SkillsUSA Champions magazine story submission form. We may feature your efforts in our digital magazine for the rest of SkillsUSA Nation to be inspired by.
