ALDP Alumni Council

Curated by academic leaders for academic leaders across the university, the ALDP Alumni Council is designed to enhance opportunities for peer-to-peer learning and networking amongst academic leaders at UBC in various stages of their leadership journeys, and to assist the leadership team of ALDP to remain current on emergent challenges facing academic leaders at UBC. Following participation in the program, leaders are automatically invited to the Alumni Council for continued learning and connection with peers across campus. 

For more information, please contact Dr. Tom Scholte at tom.scholte@ubc.ca.
