What is Affiliating?
For the 2024/25 school year, the first step to competition in the United States (+its territories) and Canada is to affiliate your school! Affiliating your school program unlocks access to the Team Portal where they will be able to see the most up to date competition updates. The Team Portal also includes…
Competition Information (+Links to Register for the Regional and National Finals)
Technical Regulations for the Development and Professional Classes
Access to our Virtual Training Guide - our exclusive step-by-step guide to all F1 in Schools project elements – including engineering lessons, team role tips and tricks, branding development guides, and what to expect at competition.
Access to our new Team Directory for the US and Canada where you can view and connect with other teams through North America!
Access to downloadable resources (including the F1 in Schools logos)
Affiliating your school must be done prior to registering for competition and only requires one account per school. The chart below details the benefits of different membership levels. Affiliation is an annual membership, valid from June 1st-May 31st of each year.
*Accounts can upgrade their affiliation level at any time (i.e. if your school adds teams during the school year, you can upgrade your account prior to competition in order to register multiple teams for the Regional Finals).
**Bronze memberships are designed for interested students and/or teachers to familiarize themselves with the F1 in Schools program and to connect with current schools via the Directory. Accounts can be upgraded to Silver, Gold, or Platinum when they form a team or expand their program beyond one student.
Schools are encouraged to affiliate as soon as possible but may affiliate at any time during the school year (affiliation resets in June each year).
