Background
Organized in September of
1927, Iota
Lambda Sigma Grand Chapter was an integral part of career,
Industrial, Occupational and Technology Education in the schools of the
world. Iota Lambda Sigma served to strengthen education by
furnishing skills, knowledge, attitudes, and leadership for the various
levels of education.
Iota Lambda
Sigma began
as a secret organization
in its initiation of members,
but open in its belief
in the Almighty, dealings
with mankind, concerns for
education, and the performance
of its ceremonies. Today
it has emerged as a more
open society of professional
members focused on the
development of America's
workforce though career
and technical education
at the secondary and postsecondary
levels and in the workforce
itself.
Iota Lambda
Sigma conforms to all Local, State, and National laws and is a firm
believer in government of the people, by the people, and for the people.
There are no outside affiliations, and the fraternal ideals and outlook
are strictly American in nature.
Iota Lambda
Sigma is in existence today because of a concerted effort and
desire of professional educators to band together in an honorable effort
to secure and hold fast the ideals of education, leadership, and
humanitarianism and enjoy the utmost in good fellowship with others who
hold the same interests.
