New Entrant Guide: KEDGE Alumni, what's the point?
You started school last September? So you should have recently received an email containing your login credentials to the KEDGE Alumni site. But what is KEDGE Alumni? We explain everything in this article!
KEDGE Alumni - it’s the network of KEDGE graduates!
In terms of the number of kedgers, there have been thousands before you! Today, more than 62,000 people have attended the different campuses before obtaining their diplomas. Although it wasn’t called “KEDGE” when many of them attended (previously named BEM, Euromed, Sup de Co, amongst others), they are still part of KEDGE Business School’s powerful network. So it’s natural that the school offers them numerous services, throughout their entire lives. That’s the role of KEDGE Alumni.
I haven’t graduated yet. How does that affect me?
The students of today are the graduates of tomorrow, so the building of your network starts now. Although certain of our services are reserved for kedgers who have already left the school, many of the others are completely accessible to students.

What do I have access to as a student?
To begin with, know that you are automatically a lifetime member of the alumni network. That means that you have access to ALL our services.
Alumni directory
You already have a personal profile in the KEDGE Alumni directory. We encourage you to sign up to provide as much information as possible for so other alumni can identify and contact you. Be sure to include what city you live in and your email address, because that lets us send you targeted invitations to events that are happening in your region. You can also link your profile to your LinkedIn account so it will automatically update when your circumstances change. You can also use the directory to find the contact information of kedgers who work for certain companies (practical when looking for an internship).

Once I receive my diploma, what more will I have access to?
That’s when KEDGE Alumni will be most useful to you! The alumni community is at the heart of our activity. Here are some of the additional services that are quoted to be the most beneficial (directory, events, branches, etc.) that will be offered to you once you have graduated.
Employment services
Helping you become employable is our main objective. For that, we have created a series of services destined for students as well as former graduates, from mentoring, to coaching, to workshops for alumni, etc.
Do you know, for example, that you have the right to receive personalized support provided by a professional coach during the first three years after you leave school? Five hours of completely free coaching to help you enter in the workforce!

You can also view employment offers (permanent contracts (CDI), contracts for a defined time period (CDD), or Volunteer for International Services (VIE) persons only – you will find openings for internships on job teaser).

Assistance in launching your business
Entrepreneurship, it’s the future of employment. That’s why we have developed several services to help those kedgers who want to create their own business, including workshops and access to market studies, amongst others.

Training for life, change your career
Studies are formal, but people will change employers and professions throughout their lives, and will need services that will help them face changes more easily. We have therefore created a series of useful services for career transitions, including workshops, access to KEDGE's further professional training at reduced rates, private coaching, and career interviews.
