Alumni Talks

Twice a year the Alumni Office organises online workshops with alumni who are working abroad. The workshops are organised for current students and recent alumni who would wish to advance their career and live and work abroad.

Would you like to work abroad?
If your answer is yes, take the next step and talk to Groningen alumni who are already working around the world.

In September and October 9 alumni will introduce themselves and share practical tips on working and living abroad.
Curious? Just sign up via Eventbrite. This is your chance to connect with an alumn who works and lives abroad, learn from her/his personal career story and get tips on how to start a successful international career. For an overview of the participating alumni and date, please scroll down.

Practical information
Via eventbrite/website you can register for a 45 minutes online session with an alum abroad. A maximum of seven students can register for each session. It is first come, first served! So, don’t hesitate too long but instead, try to connect with an alum who works and lives in your favourite country.
Students can sign up for a maximum of 2 sessions.

Date: September and October
Location: online you will receive the link after your registration
