Welcome to the SkillsUSA Vermont
Leadership & Skills Conference (VLSC) page!
Above: Our 2021-2022 State Officer Team!
The SkillsUSA Vermont chapter holds two conferences each year to celebrate and share our career-readiness and professional excellence at the annual Fall Leadership Conference and the annual Spring Leadership and Skills Conference!
The Fall Conference invites all students to explore leadership and career readiness. The Spring Conference, which is usually held at the Double Tree Hotel in Burlington, Vermont, features contests in almost 70 different professional areas where Gold Medal winners can earn the opportunity to compete in the SkillsUSA National Conference held each summer.
Check back as this page is updated regularly with news about our conferences, and see upcoming dates on our Calendar and Social Media Pages!
Other registration forms, including those that you need to bring with you to the State Competition, can be found on our Resources & Downloads Page here.
SkillsUSA Vermont contestants are asked to complete a Professional Development Tiebreaker Test about employability skills and the SkillsUSA Organization.
