SkillsUSA returns to Kansas City June 21-June 26, 2004 for the 39th annual
National Leadership and Skills Conference (NLSC), a showcase of
career and technical education students.
More than 12,500 people—including students, teachers and business
partners—are expected to participate in the week-long event.
The SkillsUSA Championships are held on Thursday, June 26 in H. Roe Bartle
Hall and Municipal Auditorium. More than 4,000 outstanding career and
technical education students—all state contest winners—will compete hands-on
in 73 different trade, technical and leadership fields.
Students work against the clock and each other, proving their expertise in
occupations like electronics, computer-aided drafting, precision machining,
medical assisting and culinary arts.
Contests are run with the help of industry, trade associations, and labor
organizations, and test competencies are set by industry.
Leadership contestants will demonstrate skills including extemporaneous
speaking and conducting meetings by parliamentary procedure. The
competitions will be open to the public and free of charge.
