This booklet is both a description of activities to organize a General Educational Development program (GED) alumni association and a guide to starting an alumni group. It specifically focuses on "Operation Alumni," a project to establish a local GED alumni organization at Reading Area Community College that could serve as a state model for other GED programs. These steps in organizing the alumni association are described: getting started, contacting potential members, the first meeting, brainstorming regarding possible reasons for success and failure and analyzing the brainstorming, the big mailing, keeping records, and developing a structure to meet alumni needs. These roles assumed by the GED alumni organization are then discussed: supporting graduates as they pursue further education or seek a new job, assisting future GED students, planning social activities drawing new members, raising and organizing money, and publicizing through production of a newsletter. Following a summary of the project, descriptions are provided of three other 310 projects in Pennsylvania that also dealt with alumni associations. A final section provides annotations of available resources on developing an adult basic education/GED alumni association and a list of contacts for existing GED alumni associations. (YLB)
