Networking is also an essential tool to building a successful career. UoPeople's international community of students and faculty provides a global networking community. With students hailing from over 200 countries and faculty from top international universities, corporations and foundations, students can find people living and working in places that they want to be. UoPeople uses Microsoft's Yammer for its internal social media network. Within this tool, students can network with other UoPeople students, even those who are not in the same class.
