Our new state officer team is energized and prepared to lead our organization this year.  They, along with the state staff have been diligently preparing for numerous fall activities, starting with the Utah Leadership Training Institute that will be held Monday, October 10th at the Utah Valley University Student Center in Orem, Utah. I encourage all advisors and their school level SkillsUSA officers to attend this valuable leadership training / professional development event.  Your school student officers will return with resources, information and enthusiasm to direct your local school members through a productive and rewarding year in the SkillsUSA organization.
  • Registration for the ULTI event must be completed on the national SkillsUSA website. (www.skillsusa.org)  A step-by-step instruction sheet to complete ULTI registration is located on our new state website, or Click Here.
  • Please read and follow the instructions carefully.  Learning this new process will take time initially but will make it very easy to register for all future events, including membership registration. 
  • ULTI participants are not required to register as members of SkillsUSA before completing the ULTI registration process.

Welcome to another great year of Career and Technical Education Training with Skilled and Technical Science programs supported by SkillsUSA activities and events. We look forward to working with our amazing students, advisors, administrators and industry representatives.
As we start a new year with current and new participants, I hope that all of our student and professional members recognize the value of full participation in SkillsUSA.  There is tremendous potential for professional development, leadership development, social activities, service activities and many opportunities for students to kick-start their career preparation efforts.  Next spring we will add the “icing on the cake” that comes from local, regional, state and national competitions, where our students prove that they are the very best young career professionals that our country has to offer.
