CC-CS Ambassador Program

What is the CC-CS Ambassador Program?

Seville AlumniWould you like to share your study abroad experience with other students who are interested in studying abroad? The CC-CS Student Ambassador Program offers students returning from CC-CS programs in Spain or Argentina the opportunity to serve as an alumni representative on their college campus. In addition to being a fun activity, this is also a great way to handle some of the reverse culture shock that you may be experiencing.

Students may participate in the Student Ambassador Program by:

  • representing CC-CS at a study abroad fair
  • giving a presentation to a Spanish class
  • writing an article for the CC-CS Newsletter
  • setting up a table on campus
  • hosting a "Culture Night" with your campus's Spanish Club and answering any questions about your study abroad experiences with CC-CS 
  • sharing photos with CC-CS

Students who complete all of the requirements of an ambassador project, including filling out the evaluation form below, will receive a reward for the work they have done at the end of the academic year. See the Ambassador Packet for details.
