Purpose

The purpose of the Nebraska Agriscience Career Development Event is to develop a foundation of knowledge and skills that will prepare first year students (9th or 10th grade) to continue in agricultural education coursework and enter agricultural careers within the natural resources, animal science, and/or plant science systems career fields.

Agriculture Education courses that align with the Agriscience CDE include: Introduction to Agriculture, Food, and Natural Resources.

Foundational SAE Portfolio Submission

Submit your students' Foundational SAE Portfolios via the following form no later than March 20, 2025. Submissions after that date will not be accepted. Only portfolios submitted through this form will be accepted. You will receive an email receipt for each submission. If multiple portfolios are submitted for the same student, the latter will be graded. Foundational SAE Portfolios for participants and alternates on your team should be submitted. Teams must also be registered for the Agriscience CDE via the CDE registration system by the CDE registration deadline, or else the team will be disqualified.
