ACESAdvancement, Communications & Engagement Series (A.C.E.S.)

Apr. 19 (Barsema Alumni & Visitors Center)

Why reinvent the wheel when there are already tons of optimal tools and resources for reaching and engaging alumni and friends of the University? The NIU Alumni Association (NIUAA) and the NIU Foundation (NIUF) would like to help you find the best avenues for your specific needs.
 

Workshops Answer Questions and Fill Needs
The NIU Foundation’s mission is to energize and connect the private sector with the NIU community to secure and steward resources that support the future and growth of NIU. We have a passion for NIU and putting the interests of its students first. By hosting these workshops, we hope to bring new and enhanced opportunities to both our campus partners and the many alumni and friends who would like to share their time and gifts with the University.
 

Maybe you are wondering what the NIU Alumni Association and NIU Foundation do and if they could support your on-campus team to engage and solicit alumni and friends of NIU? Whether or not you have partnered with us in the past, you and your teammates will want to register for as many workshops as seem relevant to your work.

Check out the workshops below to learn more about what we do and how we can collaborate to make the most of a partnership.
Each workshop will be offered in person and virtually. Lunch will be served at each of these workshops, and if you are unable to attend, each event will be recorded and distributed upon request. For those who would prefer,
