About YPONLINE

Exclusively convened for young professionals between 18 and 35 years. Participants must be graduates (employed, self employed or in between jobs), including serving youth corpers

YPONLINE was previously convened as YPLAGOS and YPCALABAR. The challenge posed by the Covid-19 pandemic presented the opportunity to host the event online.  This makes it possible to accommodate more mentors and mentees as it also gives participants the opportunity to join in from anywhere.

On June 6 and June 13, we would have 45 chat rooms. Each room will have one leading professional engaging 9 young professionals.

Benefit from answers, insights, experiences and guidance offered by a mentor and also from everyone else in the room in addition to forming new relationships. Participation fee is N1,000 per person. Every participant gets a digital certificate of participation.
