Each year students that are members of Delta Epsilon Chi may compete in several different conferences.  In October of each year a Fall Conference is held at the C.M. Brewer Conference Center in Raymond, Mississippi.  This conference is designed to strengthen the student's presentation and organizational skills.  In the past "Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" and "What Matters Most" have been used as platforms.  This is usually the student's first opportunity to meet and mingle with other Delta Epsilon Chi chapters.  This year the Fall conference is usually scheduled for the second Tuesday in October. Students can attend the Southern Regional Leadership Conference scheduled for late October early November in New Orleans.  This year the DEX State Career Development Conference is scheduled for later February in Natchez, MS or the Mississippi Gulf Coast.  The 2009 year conclude with the International Delta Epsilon Conference to be held in Anaheim, California.  It is be held in April, 2009.
