Alumni

Have you been active in one of the committees of the EBF? Or were you part of an (executive) board of the EBF? Then you are now an EBF Alumnus!

The EBF highly values her alumni and would like to stay in touch with all of her old committee and (executive) board members. Therefore, EBF Alumni receive an alumni newsletter a few times a year, informing them about the developments within the EBF. Moreover, the EBF has an Alumni Group on Facebook and LinkedIn. Through these networks, you can connect with the EBF and other EBF Alumni! Since the EBF is affiliated with the Faculty of Economics and Business (FEB), it is also possible for EBF Alumni to join the FEB Alumni Network.

 In order to keep in touch and make new (social) connections, the EBF organises several Alumni Activities through the year.

Are you an EBF Alumnus, but did you not receive our alumni newsletter or invitations for the LinkedIn and Facebook Groups? Or do you have any questions? You can always contact our Secretary & HR Officer, Barbara Spierings (b.spierings@ebfgroningen.nl)!

Besides many social opportunities, the EBF has opportunities to benefit from our Alumni network of (former)students. Would you like to be a speaker at one of our speaker-related events, or join one of our recruitment events to find new talent for your current company? You can always contact us at info@ebfgroningen.nl.
