MY OXFORD NETWORK FAQS

 

MY OXFORD NETWORK

On Friday 8 July 2022, our external networking platform My Oxford Network is closing and it will no longer be accessible to users after that date.

Since 2015, we have offered alumni the chance to participate in networking platform My Oxford Network, hosted by Graduway.

We have monitored its usage and arrived at the decision to move from the platform and encourage networking through our existing University LinkedIn channel. Much of the essential search functionality exists and there are currently over 200,000 followers on the University’s site with an Oxford affiliation.

We have tried to answer any questions you may have below in our FAQs. Although this may be disappointing news, we will continue, and further develop, our alumni engagement activities via LinkedIn. By following us there, you will be able to find fellow alumni, monitor alumni news and keep up to date with what’s going on at the wider University too. We look forward to seeing you there.

The service will close permanently on Friday 8 July 2022.

Over the past 18 months, we have monitored its usage and conducted a survey of users. The survey response found a number of people were not using the platform. After much consideration, we have arrived at the decision to move from the platform and encourage networking through our existing University LinkedIn channel.

From Friday 8 July 2022, all user accounts on My Oxford Network will close and will no longer be accessible.

No, we are only closing My Oxford Network. The My Oxford ‘Card’, My Oxford ‘Online’ and your My Oxford ‘Number’ will all remain.
