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 35 or under 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's World 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 8th annual WYCUP Scholarship will be awarded to five recipients at WOCCU's 2008 World Credit Union Conference in Hong Kong, July 13-16, for attendance to the 2009 World Credit Union Conference in Barcelona, Spain. The scholarship covers all associated costs, including registration fee, travel, hotel accommodations and expenses.
