What is this all about?
The idea is to create a platform to drive all future alumni activities. Most of communication and engagement currently happen through social media these days. The intention is not to replace that but rather aggregate/document them on this platform for quick access and make it easy to drive any future initiatives. Any alumni can add content or add and drive an initiative or report the event details directly on this platform.
Currently, event and initiatives are available in addition to other static content pages. Jobs listings, Student corner (where current JNV students and young alumni can post their questions/concerns which can be answered by expert senior alumni) and Directory of alumni based on registered user data will be available in future.
