Upcoming Events
The Atlanta BDPA is building a stronger relationship with the community. We conduct monthly events to introduce our organization to potential members. Those monthly events serve as moments of celebration. We celebrate the successes of our associates in the IT field, sharing experiences and accolades to bolster our members, and share our successes, which serve as motivational moments for everyone who attends.
In addition to our monthly meetings, we hold webinars, networking mixers and community outreach activities. These events serve as doorways to give back to the community, career placement opportunity and professional development. Take the time to attend one of our events and join our network.
