In January 2021, the Office of Training and Development graduates the first class of Border Patrol Processing Coordinators (BPPCs), marking the first new frontline position created since CBP’s inception in 2003. BPPC’s were established with bi-partisan support to assist with administrative, processing, and humanitarian duties for people in the care and custody of the U.S. Border Patrol, allowing agents to return to their primary frontline homeland security mission.
