What are the National Leadership Conferences?
The National Leadership Conference is FBLA’s biggest event of the year! Held in the summer, the National Leadership Conference is a multi-day conference with thousands of FBLA students in attendance from across the world. Students attend the conference to elect national student leaders, trade and collect state pins, experience leadership and career development training and business labs, and engage in nationwide competitions. The business labs include practicing trading on the stock market, creating a business from the ground up by drafting a business plan, project management skills by solving real life community project issues.
