state officer vlog timm times

It is without a doubt that this my favorite time of the year when it comes to FBLA activities. We’ve recently wrapped up our Fall Leadership Conferences in Omaha and Kearney and returned from an exciting weekend in Chicago at the National Fall Leadership Conference. Right now, the State Officer Team feels the buzz of excitement as chapters return home with new insight, goals, and plans for the upcoming year. It is a great part of the year when budding leaders start to bloom.

Running for a State Office entails a few steps leading up to campaigning at SLC. If you're in grades 9-11 and attended the Nebraska Fall Leadership Conference, you are eligible to apply. You must first complete the application found on the website by answering a few questions about your FBLA involvement and qualifications. and You’ll then take a written FBLA knowledge test at State Officer Screening Day and participate in an interview with the State Board of Directors. Following a passing score on the test and interview, you’ll be all set to campaign at SLC (my all-time favorite FBLA activity)! Even if you’re still on the fence, I’d highly encourage you to fill out the application and give State Officer Screening Day a chance. Serving as a State Officer is an unforgettable experience that I have not regretted one bit. To get a first-person perspective on being a State Officer, you can check out my vlog from NFLC in Chicago! The link is below. Good luck in your applications! I cannot wait to see many members on stage at SLC sharing their goals and vision for the future of Nebraska FBLA.

As you continue to work in your local chapter during the year, I would highly recommend taking your leadership to a new height and consider running for a State Office. Currently in my second term, I truly believe that the State Officer experience is unique and offers an infinitely beneficial experience that will change how you see our organization.
