There's so much more beyond the Competition
It has been almost two years since I was a Competitor. I am now a WorldSkills Champion and I have realized that as much as I enjoyed competing, there is even more ways for me to be involved with WorldSkills beyond the Competition. I highly recommend that everyone find a way to be involved in this movement. Regionally, nationally or internationally every experience will be rewarding.
