-
demonstrate occupational competencies;
-
broaden knowledge, skills, and attitudes;
-
expand leadership and human relation skills;
-
demonstrate a competitive spirit; and
-
receive recognition.
The organization offers more than 50 events in various areas related to finance, business administration, management information systems, digital communications and design, management/marketing/communications, and health administration. Another event--Merit Scholar--is offered at the state and national levels only.
Secondary students may enter enter two events, only one of which may be a team event. Postsecondary students may enter three events, only one of which may be a team event. A student may enter an unlimited number of open events. Students do not need to pre-qualify for open events to compete at the state or national leadership conferences.
