YC Events

The IPMA Young Crew organizes events targeted at different interest groups; all have a bit of fun, together with serious leadership development:

The Global Young Crew Workshop is our flagship event. With around a hundred participants from more that twenty countries, it is a reference for young professionals and students wanting to share in a premium and fun learning experience.

The creACTivity series focuses on one very important trait of project managers: creativity. Having been celebrated in 9 countries through different formats (from one afternoon to two days), it is a refreshing pit stop for some, and a eye opener for others. CreACTivity is especially interesting for those coming from completely different backgrounds.

Coaching for Development focuses project managers into development aid and social projects. To give your career and network a boost participate and volunteer with us to coach these very important project managers.

The Project Management Championships is celebrated in different countries to serve as a platform for young students to challenge themselves to the next level. At the end, there can only be one champion team, the best project managers!

In parallel, National Young Crews organize many internationally oriented events. Stay tuned to our news for those events! You can do that by subscribing to our newsletter here. Also stay tuned in your national Young Crew for events that are happening in your country.
