Every year brings new challenges and new opportunities to
our Delta Epsilon Chi chapters. How do we build our
membership? How do we get everyone active and involved?
These six steps help you make this year even better
than the last!
Organize
Hold an officer training & orientation to build
vital leadership skills and create your annual action
plan. Set goals for the year and look ahead to any
challenges or opportunities your chapter may face
in the coming years.
Recruit
New members are vital to the growth of your chapter.
Hold info sessions in dorms and speak during freshmen
and new-student orientations.
Enter the DECA College Connection and add yourself as the school contact. You'll get a list of all DECA alumni on your campus who are interested in Delta Epsilon Chi membership.
Promote
Market your chapter to local businesses. And talk
to your local government representatives and help
them understand why supporting a student organization
is so important to you.
Fund
Attending conferences, buying t-shirts and even
having a party requires some money - fundraising
is a big part of what chapters need to do.
Celebrate
Success is yours! You have recruited new members,
completed your program of work and encouraged members
to attend unique conferences. It's time to celebrate!
Additional materials are available to you as you grow
your chapter, recruit more members, and prepare for
the exciting educational and professional leadership,
community service and competitive activities offered
through Delta Epsilon Chi.
The
Delta Epsilon Chi Passport
for success encourages local chapters and individual
members to plan activities and participate in events
that enhance the experiences of members at the local,
state and national levels. The passport seeks to reward
action taken by members and chapters that build personal
and professional skill sets. Members and chapters participating
in, and earning the various levels of Passport success
will be recognized for their efforts at the International
Career Development Conference.
