WOCCU's Young Credit Union People Program

WOCCU's Young Credit Union People Program (WYCUP) is an annual scholarship program designed to engage and promote the next generation of credit union professionals and volunteers in the international credit union movement.

The program encourages the sponsorship of individuals under the age of 35 who have made a significant contribution within their own credit union or credit union organization as nominees for the WYCUP Scholarship. WYCUP nominees are sponsored by their nominating organizations to attend WOCCU and CUNA's joint event, The 1 Credit Union Conference, where the scholarship is awarded.

WYCUP Scholarship

The WYCUP Scholarship is awarded annually to five outstanding nominees whose skills and accomplishments have already made a significant impact within their own credit union system—locally, regionally or nationally. The individuals selected for the scholarship are those the committee believes to have the greatest potential to contribute to the international credit union system.

The 10th annual WYCUP Scholarship will be awarded to five recipients at the 2010
The 1 Credit Union Conference in Las Vegas, USA, July 11-14, for attendance to the 2011 World Credit Union Conference in Glasgow, Scotland. The scholarship covers all associated costs, including registration fee, travel, hotel accommodations and expenses.
