MN ABC Young Professionals' Group
WELCOME!!!
The ABC Young Professionals group was founded with the vision of providing, synthesizing and organizing the multitude of information relevant to today's young professionals working in the construction and business related fields. Additionally, we hope to provide a site that connects the community of new and excited professionals together by use of the web blog, facebook, and future events.
The ABC Young Professionals' Group holds regular meetings and events to provide a forum for expanding business contacts, sharing ideas and learning. Social and educational events bring our members together throughout the year. ABC provides a forum for Young Professionals to ask questions and learn more about the business aspect of the construction industry. Please contact us with any ideas you have for how YPG can continue to support you, the next generation of leaders.
