In 2016, CORE Group launched its Young Professionals Network (YPN) to formally engage and support future innovators of global community health. YPN fosters engagement, collaboration, knowledge sharing, and career development among our young CORE Group members. The Network welcomes 21-35-year-olds who are students, interns, or early career professionals. We host quarterly networking events, after-work socials, and skills building activities, and share updates, announcements and opportunities via our listserv: ypn@lists.coregroup.org. Visit us: www.coregroup.org/ypn

Mentorship Program

To foster the continued growth of YPN, CORE Group would like to announce its Pilot Mentorship Program for 2017-2018! Read below for more details.
This year-long Mentorship Program aims to further support the career development of our young professionals in global community health and international development by drawing on the extensive and far-reaching knowledge and experience of CORE Group members. By doing so, we hope to deepen the collaboration, engagement, and learning among our diverse community. Mentors must be CORE Group members, associate members, or individual associates. They must have at least 3 years work experience in the field of global community health, and/or other areas in international development. Mentees must also be CORE Group members, associate members, or individual associates. They are interns, early career professionals with 1-2 years work experience, or those looking for a career change. To view program details, click here. Mentor/mentee applications are now closed.
