About
In 2019, CASE launched a new Alumni Engagement Metrics (AEM) survey, enabling institutions to measure alumni engagement across four “modes”: Philanthropic, Volunteer, Experiential, and Communications, with the goal of providing a simple way to capture various types of alumni engagement on an annual basis. These metrics can be applied across the broad range of CASE member institutions in more than 80 countries.
The survey results:
- Provide data to inform unified measures of alumni engagement, such as the percentage of alumni engaged in at least one mode. While CASE seeks to build a methodology for comparison, engagement may include indicators beyond what is included here as well as activities that may never be collected in your system. Therefore, measures of engagement are indicative rather than definitive.
- Provide longitudinal data sets as surveys continue.
- Enable participating institutions to measure and compare metrics across global and aspirational peers year-over-year.
- Provide data to inform initiatives supporting educational advancement.
- Help institutional leaders set goals, assess performance, build capacity, and make informed, strategic decisions regarding investments in advancement.
Access to Data: CASE member institutions can access and analyze data using the AMAtlas Data Miner application as a benefit of their CASE membership and will also receive a GPS (Graphical Program Summary) report, which provides visualizations and comparisons to like institutions. CASE member institutions who complete the survey may purchase additional services designed to dig deeper into the results, such as Made-to-Order GPS Reports and AMAtlas Facilitated Cohorts.
