Challenges Before Univariety
1. Building a Successful Digital Alumni Network
Before Univariety stepped in, SSRVM Trust’s Group of Schools struggled to establish a robust digital alumni network. Despite trying multiple software solutions, they were unable to create a platform that effectively kept alumni connected and engaged. This hindered their ability to foster a sense of community and leverage alumni experiences for current students.
2. Providing Personalized Career Guidance
Another significant challenge was offering personalized career guidance to students. Without a strong digital connection to their alumni, the schools found it difficult to facilitate interactions and mentorship opportunities between students and graduates. This gap limited the access students had to real-world insights and advice, which are crucial for informed career planning and development.
