So you want to be a tech caller...

Tech Callers are MIT students - both undergraduate and graduate - who represent the Alumni Association and assist them in raising money for the Institute. Students call alumni in hopes of creating a connection between alumni and the MIT community and securing alumni gifts to the MIT Annual Fund. The importance of the Tech Callers cannot be underestimated; approximately one-third of the Institute's donors make their gift through the Tech Caller Program.

Tech Callers gain useful skills for advancing in the professional world. They become more compelling fundraisers and more effective communicators with every phone call. Each must be articulate, possess excellent telephone and communication skills, and be goal-oriented. Because it is vital that all Tech Callers perform to the best of their abilities, students are carefully trained and continually monitored.
