What is the process of engaging with a Course Ambassador?

You will be assigned the next available Course Ambassador based on the time that you have booked on the Calendly link. When booking through the Calendly link, it will give you the option of setting up a Zoom meeting with your assigned Course Ambassador.

Course Ambassadors need to be booked for a minimum of 2 hours. This does not mean that you have to be in a meeting with the CA鈥檚 for this whole period of time. It just means that this is the time that the Course Ambassador will be spending carrying out your assigned task.

Here is an example of how the process may work:

1. Book a time through your faculty Calendly link for a Course Ambassador to work on your task.
2. Have a Zoom meeting with your assigned Course Ambassador to discuss your task and how you would like it done.
3. Leave the task with the Course Ambassador to complete within the assigned timeframe.
