665 - Aston University Alumni Platform

Notice Description

Aston University invites you to submit a tender for the delivery of the design and delivery of the new Aston for Life platform for alumni of Aston University. Through the platform, Aston alumni will be able to access Aston-exclusive content tailored to their individual needs, to support them in their careers. In addition, they'll also have access to alumni-led career-themed networks, which will enable them to share job opportunities, take part in industry discussions, find partners to collaborate with, build their professional networks, organise events, and more. The main target market for this platform will be existing alumni, however we would also consider opening the platform for final year students, to engage them before they leave the university.
