How many degrees can FFA members earn?

FFA members can earn four degrees throughout their involvement in the organization, reflecting their growth and achievements within FFA and agricultural education. These degrees are designed to recognize members at different stages of their FFA careers and include the Discovery Degree, Greenhand Degree, Chapter Degree, and State Degree.

The structure of these degrees serves to motivate members by setting tangible goals they can work toward. Each degree has specific criteria that members must meet, such as completing a certain number of hours in agricultural education, participating in events, or demonstrating leadership and community involvement.

This multi-tiered approach encourages continuous personal and professional development among members, reinforcing the value FFA places on education and leadership skills in agriculture and beyond.
