Alumni Engagement@IILM : A Step Forward

Alumni are the brand ambassadors for any educational institution and a strong alumni community is an irreplaceable asset for any organization. IILM is proud to have a alumni base of 8500+ alumni and continuously endeavours to engage them.

Year 2014 has been a good year in taking a step forward to make our alumni a part of our various events and activities. Alumni are invited for Guest Sessions, for participation in placements, Summer Internships, IILM’s internal events like Global Thinker Award, Conferences, advanced management programs that also helps our alumni to enhance their learnings. They also aid in course delivery by reviewing modules and their content. participating in Panel Discussions and empanelling the Comprehensive Viva, assist admissions by being part of GD/PI process, judges for i-fest events etc.

We introduced the Alumni Mentorship program in 2013 and this is helping our students get guidance from their experienced seniors. As part of this program we invite our alumni to deliver a session which includes their experience sharing and knowledge about their industry, tips to students for placement interviews and then on the basis of their interaction with the students, a few students are allotted as mentees to the alumni to stay in touch with them for career guidance. We have successfully organized many sessions and will continue to do so for the benefit of our students.
