Alumni
Blue Mountains have over 3,000 graduates working in various roles around the world, many of whom are active in maintaining a close connection with the Blue Mountains International Hotel Management School as well as with their graduate peers.
Formal and informal alumni events, such as conference speaking engagements, casual drinks, dinners and charity functions are held regularly and organised by Alumni or the Alumni Manager.
