Transform the Future
OF OUR Emerging Leaders
and Entrepreneurs!
80 years ago, DECA organized around an ambitious goal: to improve education and career opportunities for students interested in careers in marketing, merchandising, management and entrepreneurship. What began with a few hundred students in 17 states has grown to over 316,000 students in all 50 states, plus Canada, Guam, the Virgin Islands, Puerto Rico and Germany.
The objective of marketing education and DECA is to teach marketing and management skills in career areas such as retail operations and management, advertising, hospitality and tourism, finance, international marketing, sports and entertainment marketing, and entrepreneurship. The curriculum is tailored to the specific career goals of students and includes basic scholastic and communication skills, human relations and employability skills with an emphasis on economics and free enterprise.
