to determine if it is providing realistic and current preparation and training for students.

2. Act as a change agent to increase the agricultural education program’s relevance.

3. Help secure training stations and assist in the
placement of program graduates.

4. Provide input and support for legislation and corresponding funding at the local, state and federal
levels.

5. Act as a communications link to assist in the development of community understanding of and support
for the agricultural education program.

6. Provide a service to the agricultural education program.
