The Wisconsin Association of FFA is an association of the National FFA Organization whose mission is to make a
positive difference in the lives of students by developing their potential for premier leadership, personal growth and career success through agricultural education.
OHEC partners with FFA to act as a superintendent and lead the Wildlife Career Development Event (CDE) in the spring with a written exam, identification exam, and team practicum exam. In the spring, OHEC leads this state test on the University of Wisconsin Madison campus. The primary goal of Career Development Events is to develop individual responsibilities, foster teamwork and promote communication while recognizing the value of ethical competition and individual achievement.
