Students in Northcentral Technical College’s (NTC) agriculture-related programs are making their mark through Professional Agricultural Students (PAS), an organization that helps future agricultural professionals build essential skills, gain real-world experience and expand their industry networks.

Open to all NTC students in agriculture-related programs—regardless of experience—PAS provides opportunities to participate in employment experience programs, hands-on skill development, and organizational activities. This year, many NTC students showcased their expertise at the state-level PAS competitions, earning top placements and securing spots to compete at Nationals. Their success highlights NTC’s commitment to preparing the next generation of agricultural leaders for the workforce.
