Franklin Reed, TEKsystems Regional Diversity Recruiter said, “We believe a diverse and engaged workforce is vital for corporations to remain competitive and innovative. BDPA has been at the forefront of developing diverse talent and preparing them to be successful in corporate America for many years. Partnering with BDPA reinforces our commitment to provide our clients with diverse and qualified talent. The chapter programs and events that support the members are always applicable and relevant. We’re excited to continue our partnership.”

BDPA is the largest African American information technology association in the U.S., and the largest national non-profit organization continually involved in training students underrepresented in Science, Technology, Engineering and Math. BDPA was founded in 1975 by Earl Pace and David Wimberly to close the digital divide for underrepresented minorities in STEM fields.

BDPA National President Mike Williams stated, "We thank TEKsystems for their generous donation and their continued commitment to diversity and BDPA's mission."
