More and more schools are recognizing DECA as a great way for students to get prepared for ‘the real world’.  Students are mentored by our strongest leaders and guided by our most supportive corporate and community sponsors enabling them with the motivation, skills, and education they need to pursue a line of business.

DECA fearlessly dives into a world beyond textbooks through role-plays, community projects, leadership programs, and international networking.

DECA is also an identified component of the Specialist High Skills Major (SHSM) program.  Through experiential programming, students are given many reach ahead opportunities that they can apply to their SHSM designation on their OSSD.
