The Australia China Alumni Association (ACAA) was established in 2007 with support from the Australian Ambassador to China. Since then, it has expanded significantly and now connects with a network of over 30,000 Australian alumni across greater China. As a non-profit organization, the ACAA is supported through partnerships with universities and corporations, and receives backing from the Australian Government in China.

​

The ACAA is grateful for the continuous support from its partner universities, the Australian Embassy in Beijing, the Australian Consulates-General in Shanghai, Guangzhou, Chengdu, and Shenyang, as well as Austrade. This support has been crucial in developing the ACAA into the largest Australian alumni network in China, focused on fostering people-to-people connections.

​

The ACAA welcomes all China-based alumni and Chinese students of Australian universities, offering a range of services, programs, and events. These include the annual Alumni Awards, a Mentor Program, Welcome Back Receptions, Career Development Events, and Industry Discussion Forums. With ACAA Chapters in Sydney, Melbourne, Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, and volunteers in many major cities, the ACAA serves as a vital platform for promoting the contributions of Australian alumni to commercial and cultural exchanges between Australia and China, and for helping alumni across China reconnect and thrive.
