The U.S. Army has partnered with DECA for nearly 25 years. Army ROTC has annually participated in the International Career Development Conference as an exhibitor, provided mentors, judged competitions, shared remarks on leadership and awarded millions in college scholarships.
This year, Army ROTC has extended 3 & 4-year full-tuition scholarship offers to 31 current DECA members, totaling more than $15 million.
