O
ur alumni community is an extremely important part of the University of London. Our alumni are our students of yesterday and our leaders, thinkers and entrepreneurs of tomorrow. We want our alumni to continue to feel part of the UoL community and have the opportunity to give back to the University in meaningful ways. Alumni volunteering is a rewarding experience that can enhance your CV, open up networking opportunities and continue your connection with UoL. We value the input and expertise that our alumni can contribute to our activities with the range of experiences you bring to the table.
Alumni Ambassador programme There are many ways in which we would encourage you to get involved with the University. One of our main initiatives is our Alumni Ambassador programme, which allows alumni to provide support, insight and advice for both prospective and current students. The year 2020 has seen the relaunch of this programme, bringing together existing Ambassadors with some new faces, and we are so thankful for the time that these alumni give to support those following in their footsteps. Ambassadors assist in answering questions about the programme they studied, settling those nerves of a prospective student accepting a place at the University, and offer advice on what it is like to be a University of London student, wherever you are in the world.
Alumni Groups Our Alumni Groups across the globe continue to facilitate local meet-ups, networking opportunities and an opportunity to socialise with fellow alumni in their country of residence. Over the coming year I will be working on supporting our Alumni Groups even further to help grow our reach across the world, and to ensure that you are all able to stay connected to the University post-graduation.
Volunteering Volunteering with the University does not necessarily have to be an official position. We are always keen to hear about your University experience and career path, to feature you in our communications as an alumni profile, to inspire those students wishing to follow you. We are increasing our event output to include more digital events, after the success of our first alumni digital event in June of this year, and we welcome ideas for topics and volunteers to speak at these events. With all these opportunities, and more in development over the coming years, there is no better time to get involved. You can find out more on volunteering with the University by contacting me at: alumni@london.ac.uk or visiting: london.ac.uk/alumni/volunteering Daniel Hutchinson joined the University in January 2020 as Alumni Relations Manager, and provides opportunities for graduates of our distance and flexible learning programmes to engage in the life of the University.
