Level 4 Ambassador Projects
Ambassador Level 4 provides students with the opportunity to showcase their leadership skills in a culminating project that highlights the knowledge, skills and abilities developed throughout the program. Ambassador Level 4 takes the span of a whole academic school year and students are expected to complete their project deliverables by the end of the school year.
Level 4 Ambassadors work in small groups and participate in a culminating project that showcases the leadership skills they have gained over the course of their university experience, and highlight the knowledge, skills and abilities they have developed throughout their participation in the Ambassador Program. Check out the projects our Level 4 Ambassadors are currently working on that reflect the following five domains:
