On-line Community Platforms

With today's technology, it is easier than ever to connect your membership with each other to strengthen the community. Engagement and career platforms are the virtual home for your organization and should reflect the shared values of the institution. They can facilitate mentoring programs, social interactions, event organizing, and career opportunities. Strategic implementation of the software connects members to the organization and to each other. This table provides a comparison of platforms with information provided by the vendors based on key areas of functionality. Note that some companies specialize in working with educational alumni associations and others are primarily corporate.

Here is a list with links where available:

Here are a few entities that provide technology to support alumni organizations with features such as websites and event management:
