About BDPA

BDPA was founded in 1975 by Earl A. Pace, Jr. and the late David Wimberly in Philadelphia to address their concerns about minorities in the data processing field who were underrepresented in middle and upper management positions. Today BDPA‘s 45 chapters, throughout the US, serve as a catalyst for technical development and professional growth by providing a wide spectrum of resources to its members, corporate sponsors, businesses and educational institutions.
