California DECA Chapter Curriculum Affiliation Guide
As an active chapter or new school looking to start a chapter, the California DECA Chapter Curriculum Affiliation Guide is a must read document. The guide goes over our cost structure, school license model and benefits to DECA. DECA has traditionally been a membership driven educational tool. In this model, DECA was too often treated on campus as a school club or extra-curricular organization. However, the richness of the DECA educational experience is at its fullest strength and provides the greatest educational value when DECA is operated as a co-curricular instructional tool. The new site license model for DECA affiliation is aimed at giving teacher advisors an easier and more inclusive format for integrating DECA on campus and in CTE classes.
