What is a Connected Learning Ambassador?

Simply stated, Ambassadors are volunteers who are willing to connect our organization with theirs.

We ask Ambassadors to meet four times a year to connect. We share ideas and issues that are important in our organizations. We also want to hear about great opportunities you’ve had, struggles others  are facing, and who you think more people should know. 

We created our first Fantasy Football Pick’em League!

Sign up to play and be the first to hoist the Connected Learning Trophy! All you have to do is predict the winner of each NFL game, each week. No cost, just fun!
