This article offers a review of the literature to identify gaps and ways to cultivate leaders through intentional recruitment and continuous training of social workers in human service leadership and administration.

The Association of Baccalaureate Social Work Program Directors (BPD), which presented its fifteenth annual conference in Philadelphia in October 1997, has a long history, extending long before the first conference, held at a convent in Nazareth, Kentucky, in 1983. The organization was formed in the mid-1970s in order to represent the interests and enhance recognition of undergraduate social work education and practice. As undergraduate programs grew in number and influence, BPD grew as well and came to be recognized as the voice of undergraduate education within the social work profession. The following history places the formation of BPD in the context of earlier efforts to speak for undergraduate education and highlights the association's flexibility of structure, emphasis on interaction with other organizations, and diversity in leadership and membership.1
