Alumni Network

The BGU Alumni Network is a dynamic family of pastors, theologians, educators, business, NGO and government leaders and urban ministers from 60 nations. They have a common vision and values for transforming their organizations, cities and nations. In spite of being from so many different cultures, the alumni network feels like home for those with a common calling to God’s Kingdom.

Alumni Council

The Alumni Council was formed in 2018 to create, manage, and promote the Bakke Graduate University's Alumni Network and Alumni Events. We regularly meet virtually to strategize whatever's coming up next. If you're an alum and would like to be a part of the council, please let us know. We're always looking for committed members to help us get the word out about BGU.

From Ethiopia to Brazil, and from New Zealand to Canada, I have had a front-row seat to the work God is doing in leader’s lives, communities, businesses, and churches.

While reading for one of my first classes it was like God gave me great clarity about the next steps.

Purpose of the Alumni Association

The BGU Alumni Association provides an ongoing connection with BGU graduates in order to:

  1. Seek avenues for BGU Alumni to help BGU accomplish its mission through recruiting, fundraising, marketing, teaching courses and/or certificates, student advising and mentoring, extending BGU’s influence, and story-gathering and dissemination of the global work of BGU graduates.

  2. Develop growing camaraderie, deepening relationships, social opportunities, and personal ownership in the identity and mission of the BGU network.

  3. Provide platforms for service and avenues for strategic partnerships for BGU Alumni within the BGU Network.

  4. Create life-long learning opportunities for BGU Alumni.

  5. Keep BGU’s academic program relevant and updated through providing avenues for BGU Alumni to have significant input into BGU’s degrees and non-degree programs.

Like all alumni associations, there are two key components to what we expect to accomplish. First, there is service to the school. Part of our task will be to support BGU’s mission by getting the word out about our programs and, of course, part of our task will be to help the school financially by raising both funds and awareness. The second key component is to provide both camaraderie and support for our alum. 

The Alumni section of the BGU website has been developed to be a clearinghouse for all things BGU Alum and we hope you'll take the time to peruse it and, if you're an alum, update your bio with our handy online form. In addition, we hope you'll join our BGU Alumni Group on Linked In. You can request an invitation to the group by Clicking Here.
