In agricultural education, learning has never started and stopped at the classroom door.
From its beginning in the early 1900s, agricultural education has always incorporated an authentic work-based or experiential component. Supervised Agricultural Experience, or SAE, provides students individualized opportunities to learn and develop real-world skills outside of the classroom beyond the school day.
