5. HOW DOES BDPA SERVE ITS MEMBERS AND THE COMMUNITY?
BDPA offers programs and activities designed to increase the technical expertise
of its members, and expand their understanding of the industry through
exposure to a wide range of technology topics through workshops and seminars.
The workshops and seminars provide the opportunity for members to get hands-
on experience and exposure to new and upcoming technology and innovation.
BDPA recognizes the increasingly important role that technology plays in our
society and the great need for computer literacy improvements in underserved
communities. For the adult members, outside of the monthly Program Meetings,
BDPA has a number of professional, technical, and personal development
workshops designed to improve the skills and marketability of the membership
and the community. For the youth we provide activities such as the High School
Computer Training Camp, and Youth Technology Seminar Series to help get
students excited and involved with computers. We are also partnered with
technology organizations such as STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering,
and Math) groups.
While giving back to the community, BDPA members receive an added benefit.
Each activity gives our members an excellent opportunity to increase their
technical expertise and improve their organization and management skills.
Consistent with meeting BDPA’s mission we maintain product & services to
further the objectives of the organization. Following is a listing of the Cincinnati
