Abstract/Summary

Within the California Future Farmers of America Association (FFA), there are a variety of Leadership Development Events (LDE’s) including the Parliamentary Procedure contest. Within this contest students sharpen their knowledge through reviewing Robert's Rules of Order and applying this knowledge to an exam as well as a live demonstration. Through this contest, students also improve upon their public speaking skills and research agricultural education and industry issues. Students compete in several invitational contests before entering the sectional, regional, and state levels of competition where their advanced knowledge comes into play with a wider audience. Over the span of California, there are several FFA chapters who participate in the Parliamentary Procedure CDE, however, most of the teams and invitational contests lie in the more northern part of California, with the most Southern contest being in Modesto, California. This project focuses on developing a parliamentary procedure workshop for teams in the southern region of California to encourage more involvement in the contest throughout the entire state.The purpose of this Parliamentary Procedure workshop is to provide Parliamentary Procedure teams, especially in the Southern regions, with crucial tools to practice and prepare themselves for the contests in order for them to increase their competitive appeal and be able to compete at a higher level with confidence.
