SkillsUSA
Championships
The SkillsUSA Championships are competitive events showcasing the best career and technical education students in the nation. Contests begin locally and continue through the state and national levels.
In Massachusetts, the competition is a 1.3 million dollar event that occupies a space equivalent to 10 football fields. In 2023, there were more than 2,000 contestants in 106 separate events. Nearly 600 judges and contest organizers from business, industry, and labor make the state event possible.
The philosophy of the Championships is to reward students for excellence, to involve industry in directly evaluating student performance, and to keep training relevant to employers’ needs.
