V-App. 1 C H A P T E R M A N A G E M E N T H A N D B O O K (2005 – 2006 PBL Version) Format Guide FBLA-PBL FORMAT GUIDE Today’s successful businesses require a consistent message throughout the organization. A foundation of this strategy is the use of a format guide so that a corporation maintains a uniform image through all its communica- tions. As the premier student business organization, it is our responsibility to guide our students according to today’s business practices. With this in mind, we have crafted a Format Guide by which our students and advisers can prepare for the Computer Applications and Word Processing skill events. Please review the Format Guide carefully in preparing for these events.
