ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø

Alumni Ambassadors are representatives who live in an area with fewer than 100 ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø alumni. They plan events and communications for their region and work to engage ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø alumni with each other and the School.

ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø degree-program and executive education alumni are represented by an elected board that comprises 22 volunteer members. These volunteers work to strengthen connections among ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø alumni across the globe by supporting alumni, current students, and the School. Members, who meet twice a year in Cambridge, serve four-year terms. Board committees typically focus on alumni networks, Reunions, alumni awards, elections, communications, and career advancement.

The Harvard Alumni Association (HAA) Board of Directors is an advisory board that guides community-building among alumni. The HAA’s Board of Directors primarily focuses on developing volunteer leadership and increasing and deepening alumni engagement through an array of programs that support alumni communities worldwide.

Regional Alumni Networks and Shared Interest Groups are University-recognized groups of 100 or more alumni based on either geographical location (the regional networks) or affinity (the SIGs). These groups engage ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø alumni with each other and the School through a variety of events and communications. Each network and SIG has dedicated leaders who hold various roles (e.g., president, vice president, secretary, treasurer) that manage programming and outreach.
