InWEnt trains people who want to make a difference: young executives and experts who are actively involved in the future of their country and put visions into practice. These people are our partners. The Alumni Programme provides former participants of InWEnt with the opportunity to deepen their knowledge and strengthen their skills, to establish contacts to other alumni and to interchange.

The objectives of our Alumni Programme are:

• Support the transfer of the professional knowledge of participants at their working places
• Develop a long-term cooperation with former participants
• Develop networks between the former participants
• Use the professional competence of alumni for further cooperation

The Alumni programme comprises different instruments:

Support of Alumni Associations (AA)
The alumni associations are open to all former participants of InWEnt advanced training programmes as well as former grant holders from other German organizations.

AA are part of the InWEnt local networks: They support their members in implementing new knowledge, organize their own training programmes, and get involved as regional InWEnt partners of co-operation.

Information on the Establishment of an alumni association and for financial support of activities by InWEnt you can find in the Guidelines for Financial Support of Training Projects of alumni associations and networks.

Alumni Programme of InWEnt’s Regional Office Hanoi
The Regional Office of InWEnt offers advanced short-term training courses to alumni especially in interdisciplinary subjects like Human Resources Management, Project Management, Negotiations Skills or Conflict Management. These follow-up seminars help alumni to extend and refresh their knowledge.

All offers we provide for alumni can be found on the Alumni Portal at www.inwent.org/alumni as a platform for learning, information and communication. It is open to anybody connected with InWEnt: former and current participants of InWEnt advanced training, co-operation partners, and alumni from other German organizations.
