‘GENERAL’ STATE CONFERENCE AGENDA
We are finishing up some last-minute details with the agenda this year, and will be sending it out and posting it to the website ASAP. Some confirmed/discussed changes are as follows:
  • Eliminating the Opening Session – We are hoping this will give more time for students and advisors to arrive, check in, and prepare for contests and allow contest hosts more preparation time.  It is something new we are trying this year.
  • Time Changes for a few Contests Thursday Afternoon – Because we are removing the opening session, this may allow us to start a few contests sooner on Thursday. We are still working with the Contest Cluster Chairs, Ed Team Leaders, and Tech Committee to see if this is possible.
  • Contests held at UVU – Unfortunately because this has to be held in March, we always end up over one (or more) schools’ spring break. This year, it’s UVU. This may result in changes to Contest Venue and Times for contests normally hosted at UVU.
 
Theme
The SkillsUSA competition theme for the 2017 state and national conferences is:
SkillsUSA: Champions at Work
Preparing America’s Skilled Workforce
The topic to be addressed by contestants in the Chapter Display, Prepared Speech and Promotional Bulletin Board competitions is how our theme, SkillsUSA: Champions at Work, addresses the SkillsUSA national program of work in the area of professional development. 
  • Additional suggestions for contestants can be found on our national website at http://www.skillsusa.org/competitions/skillsusa-championships/theme/ OR
  • Go to the national website at www.skillsusa.org and type “theme” in the search box.

State Conference Registration
Due to an unusually high number of student disqualifications at the 2016 state conference from a lack of National Membership Registration plus a significant number of membership registrations that were submitted after the state membership deadline, major changes have been made to the 2017 State Conference Deadline calendar and a Financial Penalty has been added for late registrations. 
 
With the New State Conference Registration System on the National SkillsUSA website, student contestants MUST BE REGISTERED, SUBMITTED AND PAID members of SkillsUSA BEFORE they will be able to register for any contest at the State Competition.
 
The 2017 SkillsUSA Utah Leadership and Skills Conference registration costs and deadlines are as follows:
  • Wednesday, February 1st - Monday, February 20th, 2017: Regular Registration
    • $40 Per Student Contestant
    • $20 Per Advisor
  • Saturday, February 21st – Monday, February 27th, 2017: Late Registrations
    • $60 per Student Contestant ($40 registration fee + $20.00 late fee per contestant)
    • $40 Advisor Registration ($20 registration fee + $20.00 late fee per Advisor)
    • The new system does not allow ‘special circumstances’ or ‘refunds’ for late registrations.
 
Registration Procedure
The ULSC Registration procedure is new this year. We apologize for the lack of communication and information.  The new registration procedure, information, and walk throughs can be found on our State Website (www.utahskillsusa.org) by:

 *ALTERNATES: Alternates will be utilized differently this year. You will need to register a few extra ‘Alternate’ students as MEMBERS OF SKILLSUSA. You WILL NOT need to register them for Conference.  After you have REGISTERED, SUBMITTED, AND PAID for the memberships of however many students you choose to have as ‘Alternates’, all you will have to do is email Angelee Day at angelee.day@gmail.com with the following information:
