Welcome to our SkillsUSA @CAVA Website~! ✨
SkillsUSA is the #1 workforce development organization for students. We empower students to become skilled professionals, career-ready leaders and responsible community members.
What Does SkillsUSA Do?
It’s the largest showcase of career and technical education in America, and, unless you’ve been there, you’ve never seen anything like it. It’s the SkillsUSA Championships, and whether you’re a competitor, supporter or interested spectator, you’ll find what you need right here.
Get the chance to represent our Chapter and meet your fellow SkillsUSA members at the SkillsUSA State Conference! Winning Chapters not only receive gold, silver, or bronze medals, but also have the opportunity to advance to the national conference in June and earn scholarships, tools, and job offers, showcasing the bright future of skilled trades in California.
What is the SkillsUSA Framework?
The SkillsUSA Framework serves as a guide to the essential skills students need for success in the workforce. It consists of three components: workplace skills, technical skills, and personal skills.
Offers a common language for students to express their skills gained from SkillsUSA participation to employers, school administrators, parents, and peers.
Evaluates student skill development along a learning continuum that includes awareness, demonstration, and mastery.
Develops a vision for SkillsUSA programs at local, state, and national levels to provide quality, student-led experiences that enhance skills for all members.
