Student Organizations
Learning a skill is just half the formula for success in the work place. Becoming a leader in your occupation, your place of work, or both completes the formula.
To help our students excel in all aspects of their job experience, we offer memberships in five national student organizations. Not only do these organizations allow their members to hold office, they teach team working skills, leadership skills, and problem-solving skills through on-campus and community service projects and participation in local, district, state and national skill contests.
The student organization you can join depends on the course in which you enroll.
Chapter dues are minimal: The benefits are priceless.
