As an integral part of the classroom curriculum, DECA’s industry-validated competitive events are aligned with the National Curriculum Standards in the career clusters of marketing, business management and administration, finance, and hospitality and tourism. DECA’s flagship evaluation process involves students in both a written component such as an exam or report and an interactive component with an industry professional serving as a judge. DECA’s competitive events directly contribute to every student being college and career ready when they graduate from high school.
Students select one of multiple competitive events to compete in, in which they create specific projects in fields of entrepreneurship, business, finance, marketing, hospitality, and more. In many of the competitive event categories, students must simulate specific business areas, or propose business & marketing plans that are judged by DECA experts in the field.
