What is a Young Professional?
The suggested age for a young professional is between 18 and 40 years old; however, the concept of a “young professional” is not defined by age, but more as a mindset or one’s stage of career and lifestyle. The term “professional” is intended to include individuals of all industries, careers, backgrounds, and experiences.
What We Do:
YPN was built for connection, engagement, and support of young professionals in our area. The group also works to activate talent in our region by providing various events throughout the year. This organization serves as a platform for members to build meaningful relationships, develop professionally, become active community members, and be the change they want to see happen in Valley City – Barnes County.
