Required Registration Forms
State Conference Registration Form
Due February 10, 2010
State Conference Registration Form (download DOC ) (download PDF )
Your registration for the state conference is not complete until this form is submitted to Karen (e-mail or fax). This form may be used as your invoice and to summarize the number of t-shirts you are ordering (t-shirt sizes do not need to be input on your On-Line Registration). The registration fee of $60 includes a t-shirt, pin, lunch on Friday, conference program and a portion of conference costs.
Contest Changes E-Mail
Due February 17, 2010
The Contest Changes Form will not be used beginning in 2009. To drop or add a contest, you must contact Karen Calvin by e-mail no later than February 17, 2010. This is allowed up until February 17, 2010. The same deadline is used if a student decides not to attend the conference; if informed by February 17, 2010, they will be entitled to a 1/2 refund ($27.50). Any contest adds or drops, or notification of students not attending must be communicated to the staff at the state office by February 17, 2010 (do not "snail mail" this form or leave a message on the phone - please use e-mail only to karen.calvin@nebraska.gov).

The Chapter Permission Forms (High School or College) are necessary. Once the school's administrator has signed this form, it lets us know you have approval to attend the conference during normal school hours.
Medical Release Form

To fulfill the Medical Release Form requirement, this year you are required to use the SkillsUSA Nebraska Medical Release Form provided on this website: 1) print the Medical Release Form (click on the link on the left), have the student complete and the appropriate signatures affixed. The advantage of using this Medical Release Form form is that it is modeled after the national release form & you can use the form later to key in the same information to the national website if you have students attending nationals. This form needs to be in the possession of the advisor at all times during Nebraska conferences: Fall, Mid-America and/or State conference(s).
