Alumni
Why does it benefit a Institution to keep in contact and try to help support their successs after graduation?
Nathan,
Very good point! Keeping in contact with alumni provides great leads.
Patty Aronoff
Remaining in touch with graduates (alumni) of an institution not only helps bring other potential students back to the institution but also allows for an institution to help grown the community in which it operates. If a student graduates with an associate's or bachelor's, why not keep in touch to see if they have plans of moving forward into a master's. Providing excellent service to students post graduation says a lot about an organization and word of mouth and a reputation of continued service can be vital to future growth.
Alan,
There is so much credibility coming from a successful grad. Best advertising in the world.

Alumni can be a valuable resource when students complete the program - they are valuable sources of leads for jobs and internship opportunities. A key to being successful in a field is taking advantage of networking opportunities.
Leslie,
Alumni can be a great resource for personally developed leads. Having the testimonial from someone who has successfully completed the program is worth millions.

Keeping in contact with alumni is so important. They are one of the best resources an institution has. Ours help with advertising us more than you would believe.
phillip,
Those students are the best advertising you could ever have. They can sell your school just through casual conversation. They are links to personally developed leads. All free!
