Are you a James Cook University graduate who is keen - To stay in touch with University friends? - To network with peers in the same discipline or industry? - To be in touch with latest professional trends & developments? - To participate and organise occasional events? - To contribute to society through meaningful voluntary work?

Then setting up your own Alumni Network might be just the thing to get your teeth into and it takes just 3 simple steps to get things going:

Step 1: Gather 3 like minded graduates

It takes just 3 like minded graduates and a JCU staff member (to provide support) to start the formation of a “Network” based on either geographical location, or on a subject, discipline or professional interest

Step 2: Email the Singapore Alumni Engagement Office

Simply email the Singapore Alumni Engagement Office (alumni-singapore@jcu.edu.au) with minimium 3 core interested individuals to start the ball rolling. Please note that the minimum number of interested core individual required may differs according to certain variables, the Alumni Engagement Office will help and advise accordingly.
Once that is done, Alumni Engagement Office will source & extract a list of like minded individuals from their alumni database who have expressed similar interest, live in the same country or are part of the same professional / discipline cohort.

An invitation email will be drafted and sent out by Alumni Engagement Office on behalf of the new Network.

Step 3: Organise Start Up Functions / Events

Once a small group is started, Alumni Engagement Office will assist the new Network Committee with organising a couple of start-up functions to further it's growth.
Once the Network is stabilised and fully functional on its own, the Alumni Engagement Office will step back and take on a supporting advisory role.

By encouraging the development of networks, the University aims to provide alumni with a vehicle by which they can use their special skills and knowledge, network, give back to the institution, preserve and upgrade the standing of their degree/s and make a difference to the experience of life long learning for many.
