Message from 2003 KCC President Larry Harris
BDPA Kansas City- Vision for 2003
The Chapter's vision is to provide a forum
for the membership to update and improve
its skill sets, through participation in a variety
of educational opportunities and to provide an
opportunity for the membership to participate in
the partnership that has been formed with the W.E.B. Dubois learning center.
Our Mission is to provide a world-class opportunity
for our members to acquire sought after skill sets
and the opportunity to practice those skills.
Our Goals include presentation of classes in soft skills
as well as Java, SQL Server, C++, Access, .Net and
Web development.
Our Strategy will include the continuing support
of the partnership with the W.E.B. Dubois Learning Center and other technology firms as well as sponsoring community wide workshops.
