Alumni Profiles - OverviewWe currently hold 166 'Recently Updated' alumni profiles. All other alumni in our database have had an updated profile requested in the past month.
The number of profiles we have from each school and their quality varies wildly.
For example 40% of our profiles come from two schools - JDC and LBS, whilst ofthe 40 profiles we deem 'good', eight come from postgraduate broadcast journalism.
We are working to rectify this and showcase the range of success stories schools produce.
