Alumni2Alumni (A2A) is a global peer-to-peer platform that connects University graduates and alumni. Once connected, alumni are free to create their own mentoring arrangement to share knowledge, build networks and enhance professional development.

As a graduate you have the opportunity to become a participant, a peer coach – or both – through our easy-to-use digital platform. We will match you with connections tailored to your own career interests and requirements around career level, field of work, and location, and alumni can manage their own relationships depending on their needs.

Whether you’re after a one-off conversation or ongoing connections, our flexible platform allows busy professionals to participate in a format and timeframe that suits them. Inspire the next generation of leaders, expand your network and skills, and reach your full potential; whatever your goal, Alumni Connect will help you make a difference today.
Become a Peer Coach
How does A2A work for a Peer Coach?
- Get registered by filling in an application form, we verify your details against our database. This could take up to 48 hours.
- When your application is accepted, you will receive an email prompting you to log-in to the system. This will enable you to edit or complete your profile, set your preferences around scheduling, including best availability and the maximum number of meetings you can commit to per month.
- Alumni can search for and view your profile, then reach out to request a chat (called a 'meeting'). This may be over the phone, a video call or a face to face catch up. It's up to you and the mentee to decide what will work best for your conversation and requirements.
- If you get a meeting request, we hope you'll accept it, but you do have the option to decline if you dont have time or simply think they’re the wrong fit.
