BEPAC serves as a sounding board to the Superintendent of Schools for Cecil County to identify strengths, needs, & trends in job readiness & student success upon high school graduation.
We are 70 members strong and the collective talents of the organization provide an invaluable resource to the support of Cecil County students' preparation for the world of work in the 21st century.
There is a nominal membership fee to join BEPAC and while financial resources are great for the short tem, we have a broader vision. We are also looking for human resources.
