Leadership Opportunities:

Be the Architect of the Challenge – Test Writing

  • You create the official tests used in competitions across the state.
  • Choose events you know and love.
  • You can work in teams or alone to write, review, and edit.
  • No experience needed! We provide templates, resources, and guidance!
  • This is our most critical need and the easiest way to get involved. If you ever took a test and thought, ‘I could write a better question than that,’ now is your chance. We have a structured process and a support system to help you succeed, even if you’ve never written a test before.
  • Interested? Email [email protected] & fill out the Google Form: Test Writer/Event Leader Interest Form

Interested in Leadership? → Event Leader

  • Oversee the entire process for one or more events.
  • Serve as the Event Supervisor on tournament day.
  • Manage a team of general volunteers and ensure quality.
  • A fantastic opportunity to develop management skills.
  • This is one of the best steps to take if you want to eventually become a board member of the organization! Event leaders are more likely to be selected for leadership roles due to developing the necessary skills and experience!
