WOCCU's Young Credit Union People Program

WOCCU's Young Credit Union People Program (WYCUP) is an annual scholarship program established in 2001 that is designed to engage and promote the next generation of credit union professionals and volunteers in the international credit union movement.

The program encourages the nomination of individuals age 35 and under who have made a significant contribution within their own credit union or credit union organization. Nominating organizatinons sponsor their WYCUP nominees' attendance to WOCCU's 2012 World Credit Union Conference in Gdańsk, Poland, where the scholarship is awarded.

WYCUP Scholarship: Applications Accepted through June 1, 2012

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 12th annual WYCUP scholarship will be awarded to five recipients at the 2012 World Credit Union Conference in Gdańsk, Poland, July 15–18, for attendance to the 2013 World Credit Union Conference in Ottawa, Canada. The scholarship covers all associated costs, including registration fee, travel, hotel accommodations and expenses.
