Young Professionals Development Program (YPDP)

The six-week internship program grooms candidates into problem-solving leaders and effective managers for India — young professionals who can use their training and education to solve problems of the present and future, and offer leadership to the country.

The Internship Program is divided into three segments:

Intern Development

Weeks 1-2

Candidates begin their internship journey with a week-long orientation that enables them to identify the purpose of their education and training, introduces them to the values and vision of the organization and facilitates self-reflection.

Organizational Leadership

Weeks 2-5

After orientation, candidates get started with real work. They provide solutions to management problems, build themselves as leaders through training modules and better understand organizational leadership while executing various management-related tasks and assignments.

Career Transition

Week 6 Onwards

The Young Professionals Development Program comes with a dedicated training in career readiness as well - with modules on transition to graduate school, navigating leadership careers and building a strong profile for the global workforce.

Office Hours with the Dexterity CEO

Every Sunday throughout the internship program, candidates have the opportunity to be part of digital office hours with the Dexterity CEO. Office Hours are digital video meet-ups where candidates can ask questions, discuss goals and assignments, and get further guidance in their careers directly from the CEO. As part of the commitment, the Dexterity CEO makes himself available to all interns through the internship program and beyond once they become alumni.
