In an email message this morning, University Director of Alumni Relations Christine Fairchild announced the launch of a redesigned and updated website for Oxford alumni. The new site has been designed to provide easier access to little-known alumni benefits such as resources for lifelong learning, or discounts for alumni card holders.
Along with an updated alumni website, the University has also launched a brand new platform – the Oxford Alumni Community. This website allows alumni to connect via LinkedIn or Facebook, and encourages connection between alumni for the purposes of careers advice and mentoring, as well as to advertise or apply for jobs. The site has so far had over 700 registrations, and is hoped to provide an invaluable service to members of the University in the digital age.
