PS- What is the FIRST Wisconsin Student Ambassador program?
The FIRST Wisconsin Student Ambassador Program equips high school students with the tools, resources, and training necessary to effectively share their FIRST experiences within their communities. This program is still in development but the goal is to have these FIRST ambassadors actively engage key stakeholders, increase awareness, and advocate for wider access to FIRST programs.
Open to all eligible program participants, students are invited to apply to the program each spring, for participation in the next school year. The program is not limited in size (but has remained small this first year as it continues to be developed), allowing any eligible and passionate student to join and contribute to advocacy efforts.
