Ag Ed CDE Materials Due Friday

The Ag Ed CDE lesson plan and supplemental materials are due to Megan Coy at mcoy@ilaged.org by 11:59pm May 8th. 

With the movement of Illinois State FFA Convention to a virtual platform, we are in the process of deciding how we will conduct the second part of the career development event.  Advisors of students competing, look for a message from me to gather some feedback to present to the IAVAT Board as they make decisions. 

Below is the original message with all of the lesson plan links

Good afternoon Illinois Ag Teachers & Friends!  We all know that agriculture education is a career area were we need more people.  In order for the agriculture, food and natural resource sectors to find employees, we need agriculture educators sparking the interest of students to look at all the career possibilities.  General Information:
