Career Development Events (CDE's) build on what is learned in agricultural classes and encourage members to put their knowledge into practice. These events are designed to help a member prepare for a career in agriculture by testing and challenging the student's technical, leadership, interpersonal and teamwork skills as well as their knowledge of the subject matter. CDEs answer the question, "When will I use this knowledge in the real world?" CDE's take place during the Spring Semester.

These are a few CDE's to choose from:

  Ag Communications
Livestock Evaluation
Dairy Cattle Evaluation
Ag Sales
Floriculture
Farm Business Management
Agronomy
Wildlife
