Our Mission
To promote the careers, interests, and community of NSEP alumni.
Our Vision
To advance U.S. national and global security by increasing the capacity and diversity of the federal national security workforce.
History
Our organization dates back to 2002, when a group of NSEP alumni living in the Washington D.C. area met with NSEP administrators in 2002 to advocate for the formation of an alumni association. We successfully incorporated as a nonprofit organization known as The Boren Forum in February 2003, then reorganized as the NSEP Alumni Association to represent a broader, more inclusive swath of our alumni community.
