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 40,000 Australian alumni across Australia and Greater China.

 

As a non-profit charitable organization, the ACAA is supported through partnerships with universities and corporations and receives backing from the Australian Government. The ACAA is grateful for the continued 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, on fostering people-to-people connections.

 

The ACAA welcomes all Australia and China-based alumni and students of Australian universities, offering a range of services, programs, and events. These include the annual Alumni Awards, Mentor Program, Welcome Back Receptions, Career Development Events, and Industry Discussion Forums.

 

ACAA Chapters in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra, Brisbane, Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Hong Kong, and volunteers in many major cities, the ACAA serves as a vital platform for promoting the contributions of alumni to commercial and cultural exchanges between Australia and China, and for helping students and alumni across Australia and China reconnect and thrive.
