ABOUT US

Business Professionals of America (BPA) is a career and technical student organization with the mission to develop and empower student leaders to discover their passion and change the world by creating unmatched opportunities in learning, professional growth, and service.

Established in 1966, Business Professionals of America is an organization that is laser-focused on the professional development and future of our youth, providing the tools, skills, and experiences students need to compete, succeed, and thrive in the business world. We provide student growth opportunities through career exploration, competitive events, leadership development, and community service.

At Niles High School, our BPA chapter has been thriving since its reactivation just three years ago. In that time, we've seen a 700% increase in our Nationals attendance, showing just how much our students are embracing the opportunity to grow and succeed. This past year, we were proud to send 8 students to represent our chapter at the National Leadership Conference in Orlando, Florida— a major accomplishment that reflects our members' hard work, determination, and leadership. 

For any Niles High School student looking for a club that offers real-world experiences, leadership opportunities, and the chance to compete on a national stage, BPA is a fantastic choice. We’d love to have you join us as we continue to build something incredible together!
