Event Overview:

Students will be serving as a design consulting firm staff. As the consulting staff, the students
will collect information from a client. The client will present relevant information to all of the
student groups. Based on the information shared by the client, the consulting firms will need to
come up with a proposal, 2-D design, 3-D design, an executive summary and a PowerPoint
Presentation at the event. Prior to the event, students will submit a research paper on the
assigned topic. In addition, students will be taking a 50-question objective exam assessing
proficiency of Design Technology I standards. Students should be able to demonstrate
proficiency of both IET Core and Design Technology I standards.

Rules:

          Career and Technical Education (CTE) teachers may enter more than one team, but
           no more than two teams. Additional team entries may be requested, if there are extra
