ABOUT THE CO-HOSTS

GovLoop is the Knowledge Network for Government - the premier social network connecting over 200,000 federal, state, and local government innovators. GovLoop’s mission is simple: connect government to improve government. We aim to inspire public sector professionals to better service by acting as the knowledge network for government.

Young Government Leaders(YGL) is a professional organization of men and women employed by or for the government who are “young” in their service and/or “fresh” in their perspective. Our mission is to educate, inspire, and transform the current and future leaders of government. Our membership consists of over 7000 (and counting) young feds at almost 30% of the approximately 435 U.S. departments and agencies. Our organization is committed to serving as a coordinated voice for the current and future generations of young government leaders by providing a community of leadership through professional development activities, networking opportunities, social events, seminars, fellowships, and scholarships.

EDUCATIONAL CREDITS

NextGen is 100% focused on building and growing government leaders. Every training session is mapped to the OPM Senior Executive Service, Executive Core Qualifications (Leading Change, Leading People, Results Driven, Business Acumen, Building Coalitions) and the underlying fundamental core competencies. Also, you may be able to draw additional connections between these competencies and your individual development plan (IDP), if you have one. Demonstrating to your agency how NextGen will help you meet some of the targeted skills or development training as identified on your IDP can be a valuable justification.

Also, you'll earn a maximum 12 Continuing Professional Education(CPE) credits in personal development for attending both days of NextGen.
