NBAA Defines 'YoPro' and Runs a 30-Member Council for Young Business Aviation Professionals
Why It MattersFormalising early-career professionals as a defined group with their own council signals that business aviation associations are organising around workforce renewal, not only around aircraft, regulation or operations.
The National Business Aviation Association (NBAA) uses the term "YoPro" for a young professional, typically under the age of 40, who is currently working in business aviation, as well as any professional who is entirely new to the industry. The group spans young professionals at various career stages who are committed to learning more about networking, professional growth and industry trends.
NBAA's YoPro Council is a select group of 30 volunteers drawn from all areas of business aviation. The council works to unite and empower emerging leaders across the industry and represents the interests of young professionals in business aviation. It focuses on creating programs, resources, networking and professional development opportunities intended to help young professionals advance their careers and shape the future of business aviation.
