Alumni Engagement Opportunities

The incredible alumni of Colorado Law are our most valuable resource. The Career Development Office has created an Alumni Directory to help students and grads find and connect with alumni in various cities, practice areas, and types of employers. This Alumni Directory will be available to students and alumni through CDOnline (powered by 12Twenty). Some alumni might remember CDOnline which is also our database of job postings, employers, contacts, events, and much more.

Every Colorado Law student and graduate has their own account on this password protected site. Once logged on, students and alumni will be able to see the employer name, employer type (law firm, government, etc.), location, job title, practice area, grad year, and LinkedIn profile for the graduates who have registered for the Alumni Directory. Students will NOT be able to see email addresses or any other information for these alumni. If a student wants to connect with with an alum, CDOnline will send the request. If the alum decides to respond, the response will go to the student's email address to start the conversation.

The Alumni Directory is for networking and learning purposes only. No offer of employment is to be expected out of this connection. This is just a way to learn more about what it’s really like to work or live in certain practices or areas.

How to Join the Colorado Law Alumni Directory

Fill out the Reconnect form, . This form gives you an option to select the ways you would like to be involved with Colorado Law. Join the Alumni Directory by clicking "Meet with a student or alumnus regarding your organization, your career path, or your geographic area." Clicking "Mentor a student and/or recent graduate" will add you to the Directory and you will be considered for the mentorship program in the future. Once the form has been processed, you will be identified as an alumni resource (not a prospective employer) for Colorado Law students and alumni wanting to obtain advice and information about career options in your field or geographic location.
