This Week in BDPA (Jan 18-24)

President Barack Obama is now in the White House doing his thing. It is time for BDPA members to take care of our business as well. Our foundation provides funding for programs that advance the careers of African Americans in the IT industry. Are you taking advantage of these programs?

Here is a weekly preview of upcoming events gathered from the BDPA CollectiveX Calendar and elsewhere:

• Jan 22: Greater Tampa Bay - Program Meeting, 'Improve Your Executive Presence: A Practical Approach for Techies and Non-Techies Alike'
  
• Jan 24: Chicago - Banquet, 'Awards Banquet'

We encourage all BDPA leaders to take advantage of the BDPA CollectiveX Groupsite Calendar to post your upcoming events! Please let us know of other BDPA events that we may have missed. Most importantly, let us know if you plan to attend any BDPA events this week.

Please make tax-deductible online donation to the BDPA Foundation to start the beginning of the Obama era. Do it now!
