This on-line seminar is designed to help alumni relations professionals adapt to the new reality of virtual alumni engagement. We’ll identify new opportunities to convert traditional in-person campus and regional alumni events into sustainable virtual programming. Participants will learn key elements of effective virtual programs and share examples of events that work. We’ll share tips for successful promotion, execution and follow-up. We’ll also talk about adapting alumni volunteer meetings effectively into video-conference format.
