Event Details
The Young Professionals Development Programme (YPDP) is a high-profile training opportunity provided by the British Chamber of Commerce in China.
Now in its fourth iteration, this fellowship programme aims to elevate young professionals' key employability skills, develop UK-China relations, and benefit both businesses and their emerging young talent.
Fellows will take part in enriching, interactive workshops led by hand-selected mentors from a wide range of industries, all of whom are senior leaders with tremendous expertise in their fields. The themes selected for the workshops focus on the key skills required for the next generation of young professionals.

Programme Details
This year's programme will facilitate an enriching, impactful experience that provides Fellows with ample opportunity to develop professionally, build connections, and celebrate achievement.
The initiation ceremony will be an intimate gathering of key stakeholders including Fellows, mentors, organisers, sponsors, alumni, and British Chamber personnel.
Throughout the programme, there will be a variety of BCCC networking events that Fellows are invited to attend where they will have the opportunity to meet other young professionals and engage with industry leaders. Each workshop will be guided by an experienced mentor team and will explore an essential employability skill.
