2021 NJ SkillsUSA Championships
NJ SkillsUSA Championships is the state-level competition for high school and
post-secondary students who are enrolled in career and technical education
training programs within the state.
Competitors will compete in over 90 hands-on skill and
leadership contests this Spring via in-person and virtual contests.
1st place winners will qualify to represent the state of New Jersey at the National SkillsUSA Leadership and Skills Conference during the month of June 2021.
