Alumni Listing

UiTM has produced some 350,000 graduates so far. Of this number, at least 10 percent are accounting graduates. But where are they now? None of us can really tell with confident simply because we do not have a complete alumni members database. So long as such database is not developed, the "guessing game" continues. ARI will commission an internal research grant for its members who are keen to do a profiling of accountancy alumni. We need to know some basic facts about them such as (i) Job position, (ii) workplace (iii) Job Sector (iv) Area of expertise and (v) training needs. It would be great if we could go beyond "dinner functions". Some alumni members are very successful and we want to kow details about them. Those interested to do such profiling, kindly contact ARI director for details.

  1. Prof,

    Young lecturers at branch campuses are asking for any projects that they could do. Can they?

  2. Sure. If you are interested, you all can discuss with me on the development of Accountancy Alumni databases. We want to track our alumni and develop a profiling description. The Alumni association will be organising activities and we want to include all of you as well.
