ABOUT US
First established in 1998, the Graduate Recruit Alumni Society (GRAS) works to support a stronger social and professional development network within the graduate and graduate alumni community. GRAS currently has over 600 members who have entered the Victorian Public Service (VPS) through graduate programs, including the Graduate Recruitment and Development Scheme.
GRAS brings members regular news and events. This includes social events like after work drinks, sports teams, an annual ball and special trivia nights and snow trips, as well as professional development seminars.
GRAS is a not-for-profit organisation that has no political affiliation and does not directly form part of the VPS.
GRAS membership provides free or discounted lifetime access to GRAS events, and ensures you remain updated with graduate and alumni news and events.
ANNUAL REPORT
Each year GRAS takes the time to reflect back on the year completed and celebrate our achievements.
Through our annual report we acknowledge the hard work put in by the whole committee for the year and highlight some of our achievements.
This year's annual report will reflect on the great social and professional development events held throughout the year, including the GRAS Ball and Ski Trip.
Our 2024 Annual Report will be available soon.
