Landon Schaffert

Landon, a legally blind fourth generation family farmer, understands the fundamental importance of career education. The Otis FFA Chapter member from Otis, Colo., will get to share that importance as he motivates and inspires more than 500,000 fellow FFA members as the 2010-2011 National FFA Secretary. Elected to that office at the 83nd National FFA Convention in Indianapolis, Ind, he is among six individuals selected from a field of 36 to hold a national office. Join Landon at the WE3 Career Academy Conference as he inspired teachers and staff to becoming motivating factors in the lives of students.
