Who We Are

The K-12 Speakers Bureau Ambassador Program is designed for educators who want to expand career awareness, increase student engagement, and strengthen real-world connections — without adding overwhelming responsibilities to their plate.

As a Speakers Bureau Ambassador, you'll serve as your county’s point person for the K-12 Speakers Bureau. You’ll help connect students with professionals from across industries through guest speakers, career conversations, and short virtual engagements.

If you are a leader among your peers, this program is right for you. Speakers Bureau Ambassadors help bring relevant, inspiring voices into classrooms so students can see what’s possible - and begin building a vision for their future.

Who We’re Looking For:

We’re seeking teachers and school counselors who:

Believe career exposure matters at every grade level
Want to increase student engagement through real-world connections
Are willing to coordinate a small number of speaker engagements each semester
Can serve as a communication bridge between the Speakers Bureau and their school
Participate in brief virtual check-ins during the year

You will receive support, templates, and guidance from the Speakers Bureau team.

You are not expected to plan large events alone.

The time commitment is manageable and designed with busy teachers in mind.
