Competitions

FBLA recognizes and rewards excellence in a broad range of business and career-related areas.

Students can compete in a wide variety of events. Many competitions start at the regional level and some at the state level. At the State Leadership Conferences, students compete in events testing their business knowledge and skills. Top state winners are then eligible to compete for national awards at the National Leadership Conference each summer.

Many individual competitions involve online testing at school. Depending on the event some start in December and some in January.
Some team events require students to submit a group project before the conference.
Some team events are based on a team performance at the Regional or State Leadership Conference.
