If formerly a regular, direct U.S. employee of HP or HPE -- or in the process of leaving: please go to hpalumni.org/join
This page is for others who could benefit from our forums and updates: spouses/partners and those receiving company benefits -- dependents, DEC and EDS retirees. Simply send us an email. Free, thanks to supporting members.
Note: The HPAA's online forums are U.S.-centric. However, we have other services that are useful for non-U.S. alumni without joining the HPAA: HPAA for Non-U.S. Alumni
How to join -- or rejoin -- the HP/HPE Alumni Association forums.
Send an email -- as described below -- from the personal email account that you will use for your membership. Please select a single email address to use for all dealings with HPAA. (We use your email address, not your name, to identify you.)
- We've found that company, professional association, and university alumni email addresses do not work well for HPAA. The topics we discuss may be automatically discarded by the organization's firewall as spam or phishing.
- An email account that sends challenge replies to incoming emails will not work.
- Our website contains no personal info on members.
We need you to send your request from the email account that you wish to use for your membership. (If changing your address, be sure to send the email from your new account.)
Please send the questionnaire below in an email to hpalumniassn.membership@gmail.com (Do not send the questionnaire as an attachment.)
Put "apply" then your name in the subject line of your message.
