Students from the Accounting, Business Management and Marketing programs at 海角社区 College competed in Collegiate DECA and BPA Competitions this spring.

Competitive events supported by DECA and BPA advance winners from local to state levels and finally to the national level (BPA) or international level (DECA). The success, confidence, recognition and awards that students earn in these programs are crucial to their success in business careers.

DECA prepares emerging leaders and entrepreneurs in marketing, finance, hospitality and management in high schools and colleges around the globe. BPA aims to be an innovator in Career and Technical Education, providing members with opportunities for growth. Both organizations foster student growth through education, competition, community service and personal development.
