Thank you!ShareLikes0Daniel Lopesedited by Sundus Siddiqi3 hours agoHello h!, Upon completion of the WBG Analyst Program you could indeed apply to the YPP too.However, note that you would have gone through a similar development curriculum so the benefits would not be as great. Also, at the end of the WBG Analyst Program if you came with a masters degree you could potentially meet the eligibility criteria to apply to an officers position which is the level Young Professionals are recruited.ShareLikes0Myriam Peltier-Thiberge[pic 9]3 hours agoHi!
