It is very urgent for all members of BCS to be active and united under the umbrella of BCS not only for the development of their professional future life but also for the development of the nation. BCS is ensuring better service for its members through gradually transforming its office as a paper-less and working for the professional development by organizing training, summit, workshops and so on.
