         Are you taking a business, marketing or computing class?  Are you doing an internship? Do you think you will pursue a business career for yourself…or even run your own business someday?  If you answered yes to any of these questions, then YOU should be in DECA!!  Many of your already completed class assignments can be used to compete in DECA – the work is done…now reap the rewards!  Join with a friend so you can make the most out of your DECA activities and travel experiences!!  DECA is a business club very popular in NYS and more specifically, the WNY Region.  You will develop a better understanding of business and leadership through DECA activities.  Activities include competition and travel at the local, State and National (California this year!) level; the prestigious Installation Dinner at Salvatore’s:  various leadership and business workshops; and of course, fundraising activities!  As a member of DECA you will use the knowledge and skills from your classes to increase your employability (“getting a job!”) and professionalism (“keepin’ a job and doin’ it well!).  DECA members compete in their own chosen business field or personal interest area (i.e broadcast advertising, sports marketing, sales, etc.) or you can compete with  a competency skill (ex. Interviewing).  You must be enrolled in a Business/Marketing/Computer Education class (at some point in the year) to be a member of DECA.  For more information on DECA, visit either www.DECA.org - High School Link or www.NYDECA.org.
