Conferences
Missouri FBLA offers many opportunities for members to attend conferences locally, as well as nationally.
FBLA’s national awards program recognizes and rewards excellence in a broad range of business and career-related areas. Through competition at district level conferences, students test their business knowledge and skills. Top winners move on State Leadership Conference competition in April where the best of the best emerge. The top place finishers at SLC are then eligible to compete for honors at the National Leadership Conference each summer.
In addition to the competitive events, FBLA conferences also focus on leadership. A wide range of workshops and keynote speakers help members hone their leadership skills. Overall, conferences give FBLA members the chance to compete in leadership events, share their successes, and learn new ideas about shaping their career future through workshops and exhibits.
