Getting involved
Looking to build your leadership skills, get involved with your faculty, and promote your Bachelor of Education? Join our Ambassadors Volunteer Team!
Werklund Undergraduate Ambassadors 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, from Open House to student conferences. 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 enjoy lunch!
All Ambassadors will receive a letter of thanks from the Associate Dean to add to their portfolio, and Werklund swag! We'll also ensure a bevy of lunches and snacks while you volunteer at various events!
Next steps
Applications to be a part of the team are submitted via MyImpact Page.
As a part of this process, you'll need to complete Occupational Health and Safety training and an online onboarding module. Once you've been accepted, we'll add you to the Elevate program to ensure that you are recognized for your involvement.
