UPCOMING CONFERENCES
DECA's 2021 New York Experience Has Been Canceled

Due to safety concerns as well as the uncertainty of programming offerings as a result of constantly changing travel requirements in New York City, the DECA New York Experience is canceled for 2021.

DECA chapters that were interested in attending the DECA New York Experience are encouraged to explore other conference offerings available this fall and winter. Western Region Leadership Conference is planned in Scottsdale, Arizona for chapters in the Western Region. The Ultimate DECA Power Trip is planned in Boston, Massachusetts, for chapters in the Central, North Atlantic and Southern Regions. In addition, we are also at this time offering the DECA Sports and Entertainment Marketing Conference in February in Orlando.
