I'm thinking about how I can go about my pitch deck for state, but I completely forgot about district. Can I make my pitch deck for state now? If I want to present a pitch deck at state, do I need to also prepare one for district?
All ONTARIO Written Prepared Events student are FORCED to use Microsoft Word for their prepared sections. Geniunely, what is Ontario doing 💀.
I want to do a prepared event next year, but I will be working alone so I don't want to carry a large board. I saw people with computers this year, are those events the ones that say pitchdeck?
also where do i put the computer while presenting do I hold it or put it directly on the judges table?
Do any ICDC FINALISTS OR WINNERS have good tips?
Hey,
Just like what the title suggests, what's the difference between the cover and title slide of the IMCP pitch deck?
Does the cover slide include any details? Looking at the DECA guide, there seems to be no words needed for it.
Hey guys, how do you think these compare in terms of placing in Nats and overall competetiveness + Prestige for College?
I'm planning on doing being tutored with GlassReady.
I feel guilt from that, because I know many individual's have gotten into ICDC and have gone very far without external assistance.
Am I a cheat for being tutored by GlassReady?
I'm thinking about running for state officer but I already know a few people from other schools who are running and I've heard that they're pretty likely to win.
I was wondering if I should make a DECA Instagram to get a more noticeable presence as I'm a rising sophomore since I don't have the most expansive network yet? I don't really know what I'd post since it's summer though.
Aside from that, does anyone have general tips for campaigning or information about what typically matters to influence more people? Advice would be very appreciated!
Hi!! I was thinking about DECA for the upcoming year, and was looking for the OR prompts for the 26-27 year, when I saw that Ontario DECA is planning on making two changes:
The exam for regionals will instead be an Ontario-specific exam — NOT the multiple choice exams designed by DECA....but one with questions related to ALL the clusters.
Students competing in OR events will also be required to submit a one-page paper on their topic outlining their chosen company and what they will focus on to effectively research their topic. Failing to submit or meet the minimum threshold will mean the disqualification of the team.
Does anyone know what exactly the purpose of these two changes are, or any specifics about either of them? I was planning on doing an OR event next year for the second time, but I'm a little confused on what exactly the paper is.
Also, these changes are what I saw on Ontario DECA's website for prepared events, so I'm not sure if there are other changes being made to oral events.
If anyone knows anything related to these, please share! Thanks!
Hey guys, I started DECA preparation about a week ago so I can prepare for my DECA season I'm doing FCE, so I'll be taking the finance cluster exam
At first I was a bit surprised with how things work when you're studying for a cluster exam in DECA. They provide you with Cluster Terminology Flashcards, which I know all 99 terms by heart and understand them. They also provide you with Performance Indicators, which I will start studying in a couple weeks.
With full confidence of all 99 terms understood, I started a practice exam only to be surprised that many, and I mean MANY of the questions on the exam have absolutely LITTLE to NO CORRELATION to what I studied my crap out for. I then found out, you are supposed to look at the answer which will provide full rationales? Really? Look at a answer key and hope that the correct answers just settle in in your head? What a method.
I then jump to YouTube hoping that a DECA savior will pop up on the feed with a great studying method video, only to be proven wrong after every single video I watched were the same-ass crap (mind my language).
So what and how the heck was I supposed to study? My PI flashcards? My Cluster Terminology flashcards? Looking at a practice exam's answer key's? What?
Someone please help me. And sorry for the aggressive tone in my writing.
