Members of the Young Professionals Receive

The ability to connect, grow and develop with other young professionals through:

Professional training and educational luncheons
Opportunities to meet and engage with area businesses
Timely information on key community issues and topics relevant to YPs

Joining the Young Professionals was one of the best career moves I have made since moving to the area 3 ½ years ago. I have met so many people, found business partners (and friends), and learned so much about what it means to be a working professional in the Coulee Region. I look forward to each event as a new opportunity to network, learn, and continue to develop my professionalism—and maybe have a little fun while I’m at it!
