Create an individual video presentation using a licensed Virtual Business simulation; finalists present live via Zoom.
Eligibility & application
Individual high-school DECA student members; the chapter must have at least one active Virtual Business simulation license. Team entries are not allowed. First round: Submit a video link for a 1–2-minute presentation connecting a chosen business/financial-literacy topic to a Virtual Business simulation. Include footage of the student presenting; screenshots or simulation recordings may support it. The organizer accepts private/unlisted YouTube, Dropbox or Vimeo links. The linked form asks for school/city/state, advisor, student name and video URL. Final round: Eight selected finalists deliver a live 5–10-minute Zoom presentation with screen sharing and judges’ questions. Unconfirmed details: The page lists January 2, 2027 at 10 a.m. and February 1, 2027 at 5 p.m., without a timezone; exact reminders are unavailable. Its ICDC recognition/prize text still references 2026, so 2027 award and recognition arrangements need organizer confirmation.
