2025 State Officer Summit

The State Officer Summit is a five-day advocacy training open to all state officers. Training will focus on serving as an advocate for agriculture and FFA and developing clear and consistent messages related to agriculture and FFA.

The 2025 State Officer Summit will be held July 14-18 in Washington, D.C., at the Omni-Shoreham Hotel. We invite all state officers to attend the entire conference, as delegate activities are integrated into the event. This integration includes sessions specific to leadership delegate state officers and non-leadership delegate state officers. Non-leadership delegate state officers will have free time during leadership delegate committee work. Legislative visits remain a vital piece of the State Officer Summit experience.

2025 student registration fees are $450 per student for the entire experience. State staff registration fees are $775 for dual occupancy and $1,075 for single occupancy. The fees include four nights of lodging beginning Monday, July 14, 2025.

Registration for the event will open on Thursday, May 15, and close on Friday, June 27. A conference planning guide features details on the event. Email summit@ffa.org with questions.

Base Camp is a standard three-day experience for all state FFA officers, ideally hosted within 30 days of officer election. Focus areas addressed in a blended format include sound character, positive influence, professionalism and time management. Additionally, this experience will enroll students into the entire State Officer Leadership Continuum and the State Officer Academy learning management system.

Checkpoints include up to two additional in-state training experiences delivered during a time that is convenient for state FFA staff and officers. These trainings can cover the following focus areas: successful workshops, public speaking, conversation skills, and team dynamics.
