Features
Read full description

For all Jordanian alumni of U.S. Department of State exchange programs who have participated in past U.S. government-sponsored people-to-people exchanges. The Public Affairs Section will use this platform to keep alumni informed of all available funding and training resources as well as cultural and alumni activities at the Embassy. This mobile application will allow alumni to network, learn from each other’s experiences and acquired knowledge in the U.S., share alumni success stories, and celebrate alumni achievements. Through this mobile application alumni will be able to connect with mentors who can share relevant advice or offer to act as mentors themselves. We hope that this platform will be a positive, politics-free zone and a place to share opportunities and ideas.
