“In Demand, Delivering Results” describes BCIT alumni and the culture of the dynamic Alumni Association, which serves 140,000+ alumni through the BCIT Alumni Relations Office at the Burnaby Campus.
Many dedicated alumni have volunteered their time and energy to serve on the Alumni Association’s board of directors, alumni committees, annual alumni events, and various other initiatives. Their contributions are greatly appreciated by BCIT.
Alumni are also key supporters of current BCIT students. By donating to the Sharing Success Campaign, alumni are building the BCIT Alumni Association Scholarship and Bursary Endowed Fund.
The Alumni Fund, which is the largest endowment at BCIT, assists students who are struggling with the cost of their education and awards their achievements.
