NCAT’s commitment to alumni

NCAT provides alumni services to its alumni. Where you enrol as a student of NCAT, you automatically become a member of NCAT’s alumni community after being awarded a qualification. NCAT regards these services as an important and integral part of our long-term commitment to our students and former students.

We will keep a record of interactions with you for future reference and to help tailor further communications with you; as part of this, some emails sent by NCAT may record whether the email has been opened and whether any links have been clicked on. NCAT may then supplement these records with data from public third-party sources such as media articles, company and charity filings or social networking websites. Such information may include:

The communications you may expect are:
• Postal and e-communications to update you on developments at NCAT and further our relationship
• Invitations to corporate and (where appropriate) donor events
• Graduate destination surveys to support Aviation backed initiative
• Invitations to develop our relationship that may result in a request for you to consider supporting us in terms of time/philanthropy/supporting employability for current students
• Occasional unsolicited donation requests to seek philanthropic support for fundraising projects

For example, if you provide us with new contact details or change your details on websites managed by NCAT or social media sites such as LinkedIn we may update your personal details accordingly. We may also update your record for administrative purposes such as attending an event, recording donations or registering complaints.

Who can see your data?
