In recent years some new books and on-line curses make preparation easier.

"To my knowledge, never before has a similar opportunity been provided to schools that offers such a unique educational opportunity plus provides revenue for DECA or other school business clubs involved," says Troester, "From each purchase that is made from school’s website class or group that takes on this project will get a portion of each sale. The school is not required to stock inventory, bill customers or be concerned about shipping or handling. We do all this for partnership”.

In addition to DECA classes and business clubs, art classes at schools can get involved in e-store creating designs to be placed onto apparel and accessories. Then computer classes, business classes, or technology classes can add products and descriptions to website. Revenues can be split between appropriate groups, or can go to coordinating entity and others can receive credits.

All classes can benefit with this outstanding program; business classes and DECA Clubs can help other classes such as band and P.E. put together fund raisers using decorated apparel and accessories they sell on line. Cuda Apparel has several fundraisers already developed for schools to execute.
