The SkillsUSA Championships is the showcase for the best career and technical students in the nation.
Contests begin locally and continue through the state and national levels.
The Championships is a multi-million dollar event that occupies a space equivalent to eight football fields. In 2001, there will be over 4,000 contestants in 72 separate events. Nearly 1,500 judges and contest organizers from labor and management will make the national event possible. The philosophy of the Championships is to reward students for excellence, to involve industry in directly evaluating student performance and to keep training relevant to employers' needs.
