FIMS Alumni Reception in Toronto
We are in the process of planning the next FIMS alumni reception to coincide with the OLA Superconference in Toronto in January. All FIMS alumni will be invited to attend and we are looking forward to connecting with you again. Keep an eye out in your email for the invitation. Details will also be posted on the FIMS website.
We Want to Hear About You!
We're interested in hearing more FIMS alumni stories - right from the source. Alumni tell us that they want to know what other FIMS alumni are up to. Maybe you have a unique job, or your degree took you places you weren't expecting. You can tell us about it using our new online form.
