The
Future
Problem Solving Program (FPSP) is a nationally recognized, award winning
program founded by Dr. E. Paul Torrance. The
program seeks to increase an awareness for the future and
encourage creativity in students of all ages. The Kentucky
Association for Academic Competition (KAAC) serves as the Affiliate
Program for the International FPSP in Kentucky.
Governor's Cup FPS
Team FPS is offered as part of the
Governor's Cup academic competition.
Because
students are the beneficiaries of this program, KAAC requires
that the FPS coach know both the nuances of the FPS process
and the rules of FPS evaluation by being certified at one of the
many
FPS
Training Clinics held across the
state.
FPS teams need appropriate guidance by a
knowledgeable coach. The coach can be a teacher, aide,
administrator, parent, or other interested adult.
FPS Component
Events
There's more to FPS than just Governor's Cup team FPS,
however. KAAC also
offers the following FPS Component Events:
Community Problem Solving
Scenario Writing
Junior Division
Individual FPS
