Getting involved

Looking to build your leadership skills, get involved with your faculty, and promote your Bachelor of Education? Join our Ambassadors Volunteer Team!


Join faculty and staff at university events

As a Werklund Undergraduate Ambassador, you'll have the opportunity to represent the Bachelor of Education and Werklund School of Education at great events, provide peer-to-peer knowledge, support Future Students in their transition into university, and network with faculty, instructors, staff, and fellow Bachelor of Education students.

Expand your resume and network!

All Ambassadors will receive a letter of thanks from the Associate Dean to add to your portfolio, and a chance to get to know fellow students as well as faculty members and external community members. We'll also try to provide Werklund swag and snacks whenever possible when you volunteer at various events!

It was the Werklund Student Ambassadors at [Open House 2023] that really solidified my passion and willingness to pursue the field of education, and they were also how I found out about the concurrent degree! If I can be that empowering, encouraging and informing voice for another aspiring educator, I'd consider it an honour!
