What Is DECA Competition Like?
Competitive events in DECA revolve around getting students ready to thrive in a real-world business setting. Events can be either individual or group-based, and will most likely consist of a role-play scenario, a written paper, or a planned presentation. Most events also require an objective test.
DECA Competition events fall into one of five real-world clusters:
1. Business Management + Administration
2. Finance
3. Marketing
4. Hospitality & Tourism
5. Entrepreneurship

Role Play & Written Events
Role Play & Written Events
In Role Plays, competitors are often presented a real world scenario, and the team has to analyze and plan their solution for about 10-30 minutes, depending on the event. Then, the team presents its findings and information to a judge for about 10-15 minutes. In the prep time, participants are given a sheet of paper, pencil, and eraser to make any notes that they need. They are also given a sheet highlighting the performance indicators that go along with the event.
Written Events
Written Events
In Written Events, competitors prepare a form of written paper months before the actual competition. Teams submit the presentation prior to the conference and present their finding to judges. These events allow competitors to show their creativity with groundbreaking concepts and ideas!
