Congratulations to the MIC-BC program and its formal Independent DECA chapter. DECA prepares students for careers in marketing, finance, hospitality, and management. The club also develops leadership skills and gives students a chance to compete and attend DECA seminars, business conferences, and competitions worldwide. With business skills being relevant throughout every industry, having a strong foundation in communication, leadership, problem-solving, financial management, and marketing sets students apart from their peers.
DECA is a significant stepping stone for students interested in business. Exposure to real-world scenarios compounds student learning, and they are better prepared for professional roles while displaying a commitment to business education. This is invaluable for University and career preparation.
With several client visits, our students are on an experiential learning journey of a lifetime. This practical approach bridges the gap between theoretical knowledge and real-world application, making learning more engaging, relevant, and impactful. Experiential learning turns business education from memorization into meaningful, skill-building experiences—exactly what Gen Z needs in a fast-changing economy.
These client visits are more than just a photo opportunity, our DECA students are engaging these clients to learn the intricacies of their business. Some of the questions asked include:
How do you stay adaptable in a rapidly changing business environment?
How does your company stay ahead of competitors in an evolving market?
How do you foster a culture of innovation within your organization?
What strategies do you use to motivate and inspire your team?
These visits are made possible with the guidance and support of our dedicated advisors, who play a crucial role in
facilitating these opportunities. The objective is to ask questions that spark meaningful discussions and provide
students with actionable insights.
