What is the primary purpose of the Chapter Award Program (CAP)?

The primary purpose of the Chapter Award Program (CAP) is to develop a well-rounded program of work for chapters. This initiative encourages DECA chapters to create meaningful activities and projects that contribute to the overall growth and development of their members. By focusing on a comprehensive program of work, chapters can enhance their performance in various areas, including community service, professional development, and leadership activities. The emphasis is on ensuring that chapters function effectively and provide valuable experiences for all members, which ultimately strengthens the overall DECA organization. This holistic approach not only benefits the students involved but also helps in establishing the reputation and impact of the chapters within their communities.
