6 Key Functionalities of a Successful Alumni Association 

Regular Communication

One of the primary duties of an alumni association is to keep alumni in the loop about the institution. This regular communication fosters a sense of belonging and connection, as it brings alumni up to date about how their alma mater is faring. 

Alumni Events

Alumni associations regularly conduct alumni events. These events can be the perfect opportunity for the alums to reconnect with their lost acquaintances, make new friends, and immerse themselves in nostalgia. 

Mentoring & Career Opportunities

Mentoring can be a powerful tool for students to ace their interviews, create solid resumes, build innovative projects, and learn about industries. Alumni associations can facilitate this process by bringing in alumni mentors who can guide students on all fronts. 

Fundraising

An alumni association can be instrumental in engaging alumni and bringing them closer to the institution again. Associations conduct regular fundraising campaigns where alumni can donate funds that can be used for various institutional needs.

Alumni Chapters

Alumni chapters are location-specific groups where alumni residing in the same geographical area come together and form a community. Alumni associations can mobilize their members to create these groups in various cities. 

Building and Maintaining

To bring alumni together, engage them, and generate value for them and the institution, alumni associations must have a detailed pool of alumni information outlining all the crucial details.
