Agriculture Education

The purpose of the Agricultural Education Career Development Event (CDE) is to provide individuals with basic skills necessary for a career as an agricultural educator. Teaching agriculture involves teaching students about applications of science, management, leadership, and technology in the food, fiber and natural resources industry. Teaching methods emphasize hands-on approaches where application of skills and knowledge is central to lesson presentations.

Agricultural Education strives to make learning enjoyable, meaningful and lasting. Agriculture Education incorporates classroom and laboratory instruction, supervised agricultural experiences (SAE) and the FFA to allow for the personal development of students both inside and outside the classroom to better prepare them for success in life.

This CDE is particularly suited to students interested in future careers involving sales and marketing, while also growing student skills in customer relations, advertising, and sales concepts. 

This is a Wyoming-only event. There is no national competition.
