CompetitionsDistricts – Role-plays
What does a role-play look like?
A role play is an activity where participants are immersed in a character with specific traits, goals,
and capabilities.
A role play in the DECA dictionary is an activity where DECA members convey and exchange ideas and plans concerning their business role to judges who will be interacting with the members on behalf
of his/her own role.

CompetitionsDistricts – Role-plays
At a DECA competition, you are given a case study that is relevant to the occupational areas of your event. The case study indicates◦who you are, ◦who the judge is, ◦what the situation entails for you to do, and ◦how you are evaluated.
The judge meeting you has the same case study. His or her job is to listen to your presentation, ask you some questions, and evaluate your performance (i.e. how well you covered your performance indicators/competencies).
