ABOUT DECA
With 75-year history, DECA has impacted the lives of more than ten million students, educators, school administrators and business professionals since it was founded. Their strong connection with our organization has resonated into a brand that people identify as a remarkable experience in the preparation of emerging leaders and entrepreneurs. DECA's programs and activities have constantly evolved as we use the latest technology and apply cutting edge educational research. Our core focus has remained consistent and is captured in our missions.
DECA's Comprehensive Learning Program integrates into classroom instruction, applies learning, connects to business and promotes competition. Working with members in DECA provides an experience that teaching in the classroom alone can't provide. While collaborating with DECA members on co-curricular projects and activities, advisors also serve as mentors and coaches.
