Objectives of an Alumni Network


An alumni network can be simply referred to as a group of the alumni of an institute or an organization. Alumni networks are generally informal and the members of the network manage it themselves. The main purpose of the network is to help the members to make and renew contacts with each other for personal as well as professional reasons.

An alumni network maybe organized on the basis of a region, on the basis of a discipline or faculty or on the basis of similar interests that alumni members share. Whatever be the basis of organization, there are several objectives that all alumni network have.

One of the major objectives of such a network is alumni engagement. The networks aim at enabling the alumni to stay in touch with each other and their institute. This ensures that the alumni members actively participate in the group activities for the benefit of the network as well as the institute. By using this network, the alumni members can look to their institute for continuing professional education whenever necessary. It also helps the members to share views and needs and also organize social and professional activities for the institute. The alumni members can also offer voluntary assistance to the ongoing events of the institute via the network.

The networks which are formed using Viburnix fulfill all the above said objectives and enable the members to stay connected.
