Over the past several years, professional behaviors have changed significantly, transforming career paths and mobility patterns.

New generations are increasingly on the move, and long-term tenure within a single company is becoming rare. Alumni are therefore more mobile than ever geographically, inter-company, and even intra-company, making it essential to have greater visibility into each stage of their professional journey.

Alumni associations aim to strengthen connections between different generations of graduates, support alumni in their career development, foster relationships between alumni and businesses, and promote the actions and values of their institution.

To meet these goals, the mission of alumni associations increasingly focuses on community engagement through relevant content, personalised communication, and continuous network development.

To maintain regular contact and grow their network, alumni associations now need to equip themselves with both a community management and engagement platform and a real-time view of their members’ career progressions to ensure high-quality, valuable information.

That’s why NetAnswer and OAKland Group have decided to combine their strengths to offer the best of both worlds: a powerful software solution to develop, manage, and engage communities paired with a continuous data quality improvement system.
