Description
Create Meaningful & Mission-Aligned Connections for Increased Engagement Opportunities
Many institutions rely on “episodic” alumni engagement through annual events, homecoming, reunion, and fundraising while missing opportunities for deeper, ongoing connection. Changing how you interact and engage with your alumni through a well-designed and sustainable alumni mentoring strategy will support student success, strengthen belonging and build lifelong institutional ties.
Join us for an engaging and practical webinar designed for campus professionals across advancement, career services, academic affairs, and student success. Our expert presenter will share insights from Florida Atlantic University’s new Mentoring Programs Office. She will share how to create a coordinated, campus-wide approach that expands mentoring access; engagement; and the sustainability of an alumni mentoring program that breaks down silos, strengthens student belonging, and delivers measurable outcomes.
This webinar will provide the tools and strategies you need to build a mentoring culture that is coordinated, inclusive and outcomes driven. Move beyond fragmented alumni engagement events and toward a more meaningful, measurable, and mission-aligned approach that sustains genuine and meaningful connections between alumni and students.
