WHAT IS FFA LIVE?
FFA Live! is a daily streaming broadcast that transforms the convention into a powerful educational tool. From leadership sessions to award spotlights, your students will see real-world examples of agricultural education and FFA in action.
With FFA Live!, your class can:
- Watch general sessions featuring motivational keynote speakers and national officer retiring addresses.
- Celebrate award winners who model achievement and leadership.
- Hear member and industry interviews that bring agriculture careers and opportunities to life.

A CLASSROOM RESOURCE
FFA Live! is designed to extend the convention learning experience beyond Indianapolis, directly into your classroom.
- Use sessions and interviews to spark conversations on leadership, teamwork and agricultural issues.
- Explore FFA connections to careers through segments and interviews that dive deep into various career and leadership development events (CDEs/LDEs), SAEs and careers. Several segments will demonstrate how a CDE and LDE can lead to an SAE, an SAE can lead to valuable experience and additional awards, and how that FFA experience can lead to related careers. It’s a great resource to tie the entire FFA experience into lifelong success.
- Let students see peers from across the nation achieving at the highest level and learn what it took for them to get there.
