About

It's a Win-Win!

DECA is a dynamic collaboration among students, teachers, parents, and business leaders,
combining educational purposes with real-world business practices. Students gain a lifelong advantage, teachers benefit from exceptional tools, and communities thrive with service-oriented
leaders and businesses access an intelligent and motivated workforce. This synergy is made possible through contributions from industry partners, schools, and students, providing time and funding for scholarships and world-class educational experiences. DECA stands as the premier business and education partnership for all high school students.

Welcome to West Virginia DECA!
DECA prepares emerging leaders and entrepreneurs in marketing, finance, hospitality, and management in high schools and colleges around the globe.

The DECA chapter is to the marketing/business education/Career and Work Skills Training students what a civic or professional organization is to a group of business people. Chapter activities are recognized as a part of the total educational program because they develop leadership skills, professional attitudes, business competencies, citizenship characteristics, and social growth of the individual. DECA activities provide members with opportunities to serve in leadership roles, work in teams, and receive local, state, and national recognition.
