About Us
– National BDPA (NBDPA), formerly known as Black Data Processing Associates, is a global
CS-STEM (Computer Science | Science/Technology/Engineering/Mathematics) IRS 501(c)(6)
non-profit organization (NPO) promoting professional career advancement and corporate
growth for its stakeholders. Founded in 1975, NBDPA’s founders’ concern, which subsequently
was shared with industry, was very few minorities in middle and upper management, low recruitment
and poor preparation of minorities for emerging technical positions. Moreover, an overall lack of
upward career mobility, little or no minority community engagements or outreach from industry
continued to perpetuate these concerns into our 21st century.
– BDPA-DC was founded and chartered by NBDPA in 1978 and incorporated in 1981 as an IRS
501(c)(3) public charity. BDPA-DC celebrates its 35th Anniversary in 2013. BDPA-DC
encourages expansion of technology and science programs, corporate social responsibility (CSR),
community outreach, and service delivery to underserved and unserved communities within the
National Capital Region (NCR). Toward this end, our local chapter encourages support of Chapter
Interest Groups (CIGs) which are designed to meet or exceed service delivery requirements where
growing technical trends and demographics ultimately can support a sustainable, viable and vibrant
BDPA Corporate Advisory Council (CAC), Corporate Technology Council (CTC), and a Corporate
Legislative Council (CLC) to effectively work with standing Chapter Committees and assigning
subject-matter experts (SMEs) and mentors from industry to Integrated CS-STEM and STEM-IC
(Intel/Cyber) Project Team (IPT) leaders.
– For 37 years NBDPA and local BDPA Chapters have helped advance technical careers from
the classroom to the boardroom by hosting and participating in community oriented CS-
STEM programs, workshops, expos, conferences, and CS-STEM outreach events. Washington,
D.C. (BDPA-DC) and Northern Virginia (BDPA NoVA) chapters of BDPA remain committed to
excellence while providing a wide range of shared resources to members, corporate sponsors, small
business owners, educational institutions and local communities within the National Capital Region
(NCR).
