All schools that participate in a district or regional competition are required to have a registered advisor/chaperone present with them. Don’t forget to register this person when you register your students. The registration cost per advisor/chaperone is $5 and that goes to the host school for the provided meal. All advisors who volunteer to coordinate or judge a district competition will be entered into a drawing on the evening of the competition for the opportunity to receive SkillsUSA swag!
- Chapter Excellence Program (CEP)
The Chapter Excellence Program (CEP) is the single best way to build a successful SkillsUSA chapter. The CEP recognizes achievement as it relates to the integration of the SkillsUSA Framework in the chapter Program of Work (PoW) activities. Every chapter is encouraged to participate in the CEP, and there are three award levels to recognize program involvement.
