A Component of Agricultural Education

  An SAE program is a planned practical   agricultural activity which supports skill and   competency development, career success and   application of specific agricultural and   academic skills a student has learned through   classroom instruction in agricultural education.

  A SAE program is the actual, hands-on   application of concepts and principles learned in the agricultural education classroom. Students are supervised by agricultural education teachers in cooperation with parents, employers and other adults who assist them in the development and achievement of their educational and career goals.
