Board of Directors
The SkillsUSA Maryland Board of Directors consists of twelve elected SkillsUSA professional members who are responsible for promoting and advancing the interest of Career & Technical Education (CTE) in schools across the state of Maryland through participation in the development of professional, leadership, and technical skills in SkillsUSA Maryland.
The Board meets four times per year with a primary focus of supporting the membership organization and preparing for the SkillsUSA Maryland Fall Leadership Conference and the SkillsUSA Maryland State Championships. The Board of Directors welcomes input from the organization’s membership. Members may contact any Board member to request that the board consider an issue or request.
Board members serve a three-year term with four positions up for re-election each year. Applications are due by April 1. Ballots will be sent to chapter lead advisors (each active chapter gets one vote) and election results will be forwarded to newly elected board members by May 1.
