Where do your alumni go after graduation? What are they doing now? Which industries do they work in? Perhaps most importantly, how can you contact them? Incomplete and inaccurate alumni databases plague institutions of higher learning worldwide. AlumSys can help you stay current with your alumni by giving them a wonderful reason to stay connected to you. The AlumSys online alumni community will bring your alumni home by providing them with powerful relationship-strengthening and career-building tools.
To become a participating member of the AlumSys online community, your alumni are required to provide current contact information. While using AlumSys, they are gently reminded to keep that information current. Most alumni find the system so useful that they gladly participate and keep their information up to date. In a typical day, several dozen Pepperdine Alumni update their profile using AlumSys. To date, more than 10,000 Pepperdine alumni have provided the university with accurate contact information using AlumSys, and that number grows daily. All other aspects of alumni relations benefit when the quality of the alumni database improves.
Don't have server capacity, Internet bandwidth and tech support resources to allocate to alumni relations? No problem. AlumSys can run totally outsourced on the Nuvek Technologies server farm in Salt Lake City, Utah. Automatic daily updates can be sent via email to keep your central legacy database synchronized. Pepperdine has found these daily emails to be the most effective way to keep their alumni records accurate.
Does your development office target alumni in fund-raising appeals? It is axiomatic among fund-raisers: The more you know about a prospective donor, the more likely they are to contribute. AlumSys can provide you with a wealth of valuable information about prospective donors.
