The SkillsUSA Indiana State Leadership and Skills Conference is an annual event where students from across Indiana compete in career and technical education (CTE) skills competitions. The conference showcases the talents of high school and postsecondary students in various trade, technical, and leadership fields, aligning with industry standards.
Participants compete in hands-on, job-related challenges in fields such as manufacturing, construction, healthcare, information technology, and more. The event also includes leadership training, networking opportunities, and career development workshops to help students prepare for the workforce.
Winners from the state competition may advance to the SkillsUSA National Leadership and Skills Conference, where they compete against the best students from across the country.
