Be The Next Room to Grow Ambassador: Local Association Edition Toolkit

Everything You Need to Promote Be the Next Locally

This program is designed to be flexible and tailored to your needs. You may choose to have prospective Ambassadors apply directly or allow your staff or local President to make nominations. If nominations are handled internally, we recommend keeping promotion limited. For those opting for a nomination process, a customizable form will be provided (coming soon).

This toolkit gives you ready-to-use, customizable resources to make local promotion simple, consistent, and effective. To learn more about the program and nomination guidelines, visit taaef.taa.org/ambassadors/.
