Curious to read more about how the IB has shaped the lives of alumni around the world? To mark our 50th anniversary in 2018, we presented a new series of featured alumni stories.
The IB is very proud of its alumni all around the world. Our alumni are an integral part of the IB's mission to create a better world through education and we are always welcoming graduates to share their personal stories and experiences. In light of our 50th anniversary year we are publishing a series of featured alumni stories, asking our alumni questions such as "How did you reach where you are today?" and "Which of your IB teachers inspired you most?".
