YOUNG
CAREERIST 
BPW Ladies if you know
a young woman ages 21 to 35 ask her to participate in the Virginia Allen Young
Careerist program.
The Virginia Allan Young Careerist Program
recognizes the accomplishments of successful women or men and introduces them
to the mission and vision of Business and Professional Women/USA (BPW/USA).
The program, begun
in 1964, involves a competitive selection process within local organizations
and state federations, resulting in the selection of a Young Careerist to represent
each state federation at the BPW/USA annual conference. The winner of the
national competition will serve as the National Representative for BPW/USA and
may attend functions in her official capacity. To participate in the program, a
Young Careerist must:
- Be between the ages of 21 and 35
- Have been employed with at least one year of full-time work experience in her/his career area
- Support the goals and objectives of BPW/USA.
Young Careerists
benefit from networking opportunities, opportunities for personal and
professional development, opportunities to learn about the issues of
concern to workingwomen, educational programs and visibility.
Candidates are judged
in the following areas: written and biographical information, judges'
interview, group interaction and prepared speeches on specific topics.
We must have
younger members for this organization to survive, and we have the exact tool
needed, THE VIRGINIA YOUNG CAREERIST PROGRAM.
I challenge each
local organization to find that SPECIAL PERSON and have she/or he
represent them at the 2007-2008 convention.
