Career Development Events

Since 1928, FFA has worked to create CDEs that demonstrate the meaningful connections between classroom instruction and real-life scenarios.
Career development events focus on student success. Career opportunities abound within today's agribusiness and agriscience industries; the key to achievement lies in the ability to think critically, communicate clearly, and perform effectively in a competitive world. These skills and many others are enhanced through participation in CDEs.

Students can explore several areas among the estimated 300 agriculture-related career opportunities--from agricultural sales to livestock evaluation, farm business management to food science and technology. In order to succeed in the national event, students must work with peers, teachers, business leaders and community leaders to gain a complete and comprehensive picture of what it takes for a person to succeed in the related career area. Preparing for a CDE is preparing for the future
