One of the AGBU's newest Young Professionals (YP) Groups, YP Toronto recently launched a seminar series to better serve the development needs of its local cadre of young Armenians, as well as provide a constructive environment where members of the community can interact and network.

Free and informative, the seminar attracted over 45 guests who received career consultations and coaching on how to market themselves in today's job market, write an effective resume, and conduct a job search.

On May 24, 2007, the seminar series returned with its second installment entitled "Real Estate and Mortgage Financing" with over 70 guests in attendance. Covering topics such as the local real estate market, strategic investments, planning, and financing, the following industry experts presented: Serge Bogosyan, TD Bank Mortgage Specialist; Michael Hagopian, Mortgage Toronto Specialist; Aret Kuzuian, AGBU YP Toronto Events & Fundraising Coordinator and Homelife Romano Realty Ltd. Sales Representative; and Hagop Tchobanian, Keller Williams Realty Sales Representative.
