Graduating from YPG is only the beginning. The YPG Alumni Committee is active in overseeing curriculum development, securing sponsors, recruiting and selecting new candidates, planning continuing education programs and participating in community outreach.

"Staying involved on the YPG Alumni Committee provides a unique opportunity to work alongside established and up-and-coming leaders in our industry. It is also one of the few opportunities at the young executive level to, chair a committee; to shape the future of a premier, widely respected program," said Nico Napolitano, NAIOP SoCal YPG Alumni Chair for 2024-25.

Many of the 500 YPG alumni have gone on to become senior level executives and principals at their respective companies. There are currently 16 alumni serving on the NAIOP SoCal Board of Directors.
