The World Bank Junior Professional Associates (JPA) Program 2024 is now accepting applications. The target audience for this three-year program is junior professionals who have a strong interest in international development. Using their ideas, leadership, research expertise, and analytical prowess, participants will tackle some of the most urgent development issues facing the globe today.
For freshmen wishing to begin a career in international development, the program is perfect as it offers a three-year assignment rather than a permanent employment.
