Which of the following is NOT a benefit of being involved in DECA?

Limited job opportunities does not reflect the advantages typically gained from involvement in DECA. Participants in DECA, whether through competitions, conferences, or leadership roles, often find that they enhance their employability and gain access to a wider range of job opportunities in the business and marketing fields.

In contrast, DECA is known for cultivating important skills such as public speaking, which helps members communicate effectively; expanding professional networks, offering connections that can lead to internships and job placements; and increasing confidence, as members practice presenting ideas and competing in events. These benefits are key components of the DECA experience, aiming to prepare students for their future careers.
