Business Area Architecture (BAA) is a formal process to address a specific area of business interest and produce an architecture to guide further development and implementation in all of the domains of change: business process, organization, location, application, data, and technology. A business area is a subset of the enterprise singled out for development activity. The scope of BAA is generally a business area, although it could be performed for a group of business areas ... as is the case for BDPA’s BAA.
BAA can be the Starting Point for a new Project or can follow an Enterprise Transformation Project (ETP). Since this BAA follows an ETP project, it uses and builds upon many of the work products created in ETP. Many of the steps in the BAA project have been completed within the ETP phase. The pertinent work products are carried over to this project. BDPA’s ETP proposes 5 business areas through which the business of BDPA will be conducted:
1. Business Management
2. Membership Management
3. Finance
4. Member Services
5. Strategy & Planning
The document provides information about applying for the Best Companies for Blacks in Technology Awards Program hosted annually by the Black Data Processing Associates (BDPA). For over 40 years, BDPA has partnered with companies to increase opportunities for African Americans in IT careers. The application involves answering questions in categories like tenure, promotions, supplier diversity, and community involvement to assess how companies support African American advancement in technology. Nominations are due July 1st, 2016 and the award will be presented in August at BDPA's conference.
This month, we will dive into the world of data analysis and visualization. As data continues to proliferate our lives and work, the question of how to make sense of it and turn it into information and knowledge becomes more and more challenging. At the same time, powerful tools are becoming available to help analysts sift through data and present it in a way that draws attention to key bits of knowledge than can be derived. As such, the skills related to using these tools effectively have become highly sought-after as organizations seek to dig out the treasures hidden in their data troves.

Alilea Fitzgerald is a junior at Columbus South High School in Columbus, OH. After graduation she wants to pursue a career in forensic science. This is her first year competing in the BDPA IT Showcase. Her research was entitled, ‘Social Media: Let’s Get Conn_Ected’.
Communication right now is the best way to get into people’s heads. Communication has been used by rulers to gain control and power and attention of the readers or listeners. Today we use social media to communicate, control, gossip and grab people’s attention with marketing. People can be anywhere in the world and look at Facebook, Twitter, Yahoo and so forth.
Ms. Fitzgerald’s research gave information on how social media works, how it is used in society, its impact and the barriers that confront it in the future. Ms. Fitzgerald is another ‘future face of technology’ brought out into the world by the works of BDPA.

Oracle knows talented individuals drive success, and they are willing to encourage positive workforce development through organizations such as BDPA. As such, Oracle made decision to offer the 10th Annual Oracle Scholarship for BDPA Students again this year. The scholarship application period goes through July 15 2018.
These scholarships are available to high school students (grade 12), community college students and undergraduate college students. The student must be studying in STEM-related curriculum. The student must be a BDPA member in good standing on or before the July 15th deadline. BDPA student membership is $25 annually.
Past Oracle scholars were helped by this funding as well as the BDPA programs and services made available to them at the local chapter level. Do you know a high school or college student (or their parents!) who could benefit from this information? If so, please share this message with them right away. Don't procrastinate ... the application is ready and available for immediate download.
Earl Pace and David Wimberly founded BDPA in November 1975 as a local association. Within three years, the founders grew BDPA into a national organization with chapters in Philadelphia, Washington DC and Cleveland. Today, there are 46 chapters throughout the United States. One part of the BDPA legacy is our program for college students and college campuses. This is a program that enriches the opportunities for our students in a variety of post-secondary education institutions with a focus on low-and moderate-income communities.
31% of BDPA’s membership consists of college students. BDPA understands that its educational life cycle moves from the classroom to the boardroom. A major element of the educational life cycle resides with college students. Annual membership dues for college students are only $25 … a significant savings from the annual membership dues that adult professionals invest in BDPA membership.
BDPA established the college student program to teach advanced computer science and community responsibility to students from historically disadvantaged communities. These are major components of our college student program that impact on the educational future of K-12 students:
1. College Scholarships
2. IT Showcase
3. Internships and Entry-Level Jobs in IT Industry
4. Mobile Application Showcase
Most of our 46 local BDPA chapters run programs that provide science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) curriculum and experiences for young people of color in community colleges, 4-year colleges and vocational schools. These training programs include a monthly program meeting hosted by each local chapter that provides remarkable information from industry professionals as well as unique networking opportunities that are not replicated anywhere else in the community.
BDPA seeks to have more students in college studying STEM-related disciplines. BDPA created the BDPA Education and Technology Foundation (BETF) in 1992 for the purpose of giving college scholarships to deserving high school students. Over 250 college scholarships valued at over $550,000 have been handed out by BDPA and BETF. In addition, BDPA created two programs that feature college students - IT Showcase (2003) and Mobile Application Showcase (2014). BDPA began the process to bridge the ‘digital divide’ before the term was widely known. BDPA recognizes that to close the gap of computer and technology literacy, minority youth must participate and compete in today’s digital economy. Otherwise, our youth run the risk of being obsolete in America’s workforce.
The BDPA college student program is intellectually challenging and builds self-esteem through the mastery of applied computer science. We create a foundation for academic and career success.
The Eli Lilly and Company/Black Data Processing Associates (Lilly/BDPA) Scholarship provides $2,500 scholarships to outstanding minority students pursuing degrees in information technology. To be eligible, applicants must have a GPA of 3.0 or higher and demonstrate leadership and community service. To apply, students must submit an application form, photo, transcript, 500-word essay on the impact of IT, and two recommendation letters by June 29th. Winners will be announced at the 2018 BDPA Technology Conference.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
