Held in Washington, D.C., each September, SkillsUSA’s Washington Leadership Training Institute conference (WLTI) offers students and advisors from across the country unique opportunities to advocate for the skilled trades while receiving advanced leadership training.

SkillsUSA is the #1 workforce development organization for students. We empower students to become skilled professionals, career-ready leaders, and responsible community members.

In this session, advisors will learn how to integrate the Chapter of Excellence Program (CEP) into your classroom.

Advisors and chapter leaders will learn how to best prepare for regional championships within their local districts and classrooms.

Elevate is an interactive virtual experience for local chapter officer teams that focuses on building successful chapters by equipping officers with the skills to lead and serve their chapter members.

Advisors will learn SkillsUSA basics, including the Framework and how to register members and conference attendees for regional, state, and national participants in the Career and Technical Student Organization online system utilized by SkillsUSA.
