In addition to participating in floral design workshops, FFA students were provided with their own educational programs during Symposium. AFE took part in the educational programs by presenting on the many rewarding career opportunities in the floral industry. Additionally, the students were encouraged to get involved early by joining AFE’s Young Professionals Council (YPC) and applying for AFE’s internships and scholarships. Laura Rich, Director of Marketing, North America at Smithers-Oasis joined the presentation, sharing she, too, was involved in FFA and now “has the best job ever!”
