Tips for Competition

“DECA is a lot of fun and I really learn a lot; I got hooked my first year!”
Liz Eastham
Campbell County High School

“DECA participation looks good on a résumé and it offers a lot of scholarship opportunities.”
Jeremy Gross
Campbell County High School

“Honestly, our students join to go on trips and meet new people. Some tell me, “My friends say DECA is cool.” I also mention to them that some local businesses will hire DECA students above other students and sometimes pay them more than other students – that’s an incentive!”
Mary Hopper
Kelly Walsh Chapter Advisor

“DECA not only prepares you for a career in business, but it also offers a lot of travel opportunities – Salt Lake City, Orlando & Nashville – what other high school program can do that?”
Allen Hankins
Campbell County High School
