2023 ELITE
CONFERENCE
The Elite Conference Registration is now open for high school
students interested in pursuing a career in agricultural education!
The need for agriculture teachers in the state of Illinois and
nationwide are very high. This one-day workshop gives students with
an interest in teaching a chance to explore the possibilities agriculture
education has to offer. It is a great opportunity to meet other students
with similar interests, talk with college and university representatives and
get any questions answered. This event will be held on September 22nd,
2023!
We would like to stress that teachers invite
students that have a sincere interest in agricultural education to attend. Included in this email are 2 word documents:
a personal invite to the student and a letter to the parent/guardian of the
student invited. These special documents provide an element of
distinction for this event. NOTE: Please read and revise, as they are not
"just print" documents!
This year we will be have a track for those that are first time
attendees and those that have attended in the past. We ask that students
that have participated two times do not attend again. Registration space is limited so make sure to
get students registered early. Also consider having students check
out teachag.net, compete
in the Illinois FFA Ag Ed CDE, participate in a GAST grant or start an SAE
project!
