BSCTC HOSTS SKILLSUSA NORTHEAST KENTUCKY DISTRICT 11 COMPETITION

Big Sandy Community and Technical College played host to the SkillsUSA Northeast Kentucky District 11 competition on Friday, February 28, on its Mayo campus.

Students from area technology centers from across the region participated in more than 40 events and winners will move on to the state SkillsUSA competition next month in Louisville.

Michael Jude, district coordinator for SkillsUSA Northeast District 11, said competition among students build leadership and confidence.

These students are leaders in their respective area technology centers and schools, said Jude. They compete locally for the right to advance to the district competition, and our winners will move on to represent our region in the state competition.
