Alumni Conference for Excellence 2008
USM, PENANG, MALAYSIA - The main thrust of the conference is to explore ways and means how an alumni organisation can tap funding support and remain financially sustainable.
Since 2005 public universities in Malaysia have, on a rotational basis, been holding a conference highlighting issues of contemporary importance concerning alumni welfare and development.
The Alumni Conference for Excellence 2008 (ACE‘08) represents USM’s commitment to this continuing effort and for this year, it is planned to extend participation to the private sector education providers in Malaysia and universities from neighbouring countries.
The theme for ACE '08 is Empowering Alumni for Financial Sustainability. As the title suggests, the main thrust of the conference is to explore ways and means how an alumni organisation can tap funding support and remain financially sustainable.
A Certificate of Participation will be given to all registered participants.
The objectives of ACE '08 are to:
To address the perennial problem faced by many alumni bodies pertaining to sustainable funding
To enable participants to learn about successful funding methods
A platform for participants to interact and network
