Overview

Learn how to build a student advancement ambassadors program appropriate for your institution.

Your students are your best advancement assets. They connect with your prospects, increase peer giving awareness, act as compelling institutional spokespeople, and express the most powerful gratitude to your most appreciated donors. Admissions departments have used these skills for years, but developing students into effective advancement representatives requires well-defined goals and thorough training.

How to train and develop student leaders
Implementation considerations based on your institution's size and culture
