SkillsUSA is the only organization for students in technical, skilled and service careers, including health careers. It's designed for you and run by you.

Your chapter chooses, plans and conducts its own activities. Being a Skills USA member is much more than winning a contest — it means dedication to personal and professional excellence. You'll develop into a person with technical, academic and employability skills, the skills that not only help you get a ob but also have a successful career. In every chapter meeting, contest, leadership conference and activity, you'll be building these skills. You'll also learn how to participate in meetings and be a leader in your school and community.

Skills USA is dedicated to building champions for America's work force. Many industries are facing a real shortage of skilled workers. SkillsUSA members are addressing that need. In fact, there has never been a better time in our history for a student with skills to enter America's technical work force.

Employers know they need individuals like you to make a difference in their earning power. Through this national organization, you can help the public become more aware of the contributions that people with skills make to the American standard of living.
