As a chapter, it is very easy to achieve Quality Chapter. Quality Chapter status will be a pre-requisite to qualify for State Leadership and Skills Conference in 2025. Advisors, take a moment during a Chapter meeting to begin the process - once in, you are 10 minutes away from Quality Chapter Achievement.

SkillsUSA Wyoming is here to provide Wyoming chapters with as much information as possible to be successful in engaging members. It is highly recommended that you begin the membership process as soon as possible.
