WASHINGTON LEADERSHIP CONFERENCE SCHOLARSHIP APPLICATION

The Nebraska FFA Alumni Association is proud to support FFA members who express the desire to participate in the Washington Leadership Conference held annually in our nation’s capitol.

Washington Leadership Conference builds students’ ability to be effective leaders within their local communities. This program teaches the participants valuable skills through personal development. These include topics such as individual purpose and effective teamwork skills. Participants will also learn about national government and see local area attractions as well as historical sites.

There are 2-4 scholarships awarded annually to the local FFA Affiliates who apply for sponsorship. We encourage every active chapter to consider applying; this is a worth-while experience for all students!

Applications are evaluated on thoroughness and compliance to the stated WLC objectives.

Completed Applications are due on DECEMBER 30th, 2016.
