At the conference, students competed in a variety of competitions. This year seven Bearcats qualified for competitions at the international level later this spring!

  • Matthew Burns ’24 placed 2nd in the Business Growth Plan category.
  • The team of Mihir Chawla ’26 and William Bache ’25 placed 2nd in the Career Development Project category.

DECA is an organization that prepares emerging leaders and entrepreneurs in marketing, finance, hospitality, and management in high schools and colleges around the globe. This year, DECA’s much-anticipated International Career Development Conference (ICDC) and competitions will be held April 27-30 at the Great Wolf Lodge in Anaheim, California. Good luck, Bearcats!
