The DECA Advisor, DECA's Professional Division newsletter, informs chapter advisors about National DECA events and programs. We publish seven times a year, starting in September and ending with a May issue that previews themes and programs for the coming year.

Each of our 5,000 chapter advisors receives an issue of the newsletter in a chapter management packet. Included in the packet is a variety of useful publications, including classroom competitive event posters, scholarship applications, promotional flyers, and catalogs.

A Teaching Guide to our student magazine, DECA Dimensions, appears in September, November, January and March issues. This column helps advisors focus on the theme of the issue and suggests classroom activities related to the articles.

Another popular column is the Advisor Corner , featuring advice from advisors, recognition of advisors and information on a variety of issues ranging from chapter management to competitive events. Thoughts and practices from individual advisors are often highlighted in this column.
