Ambassador Information
The CPHA Ambassador Program is an ideal way for veteran CPHA members to reach out to new members and welcome them to the CPHA community. The CPHA Ambassadors are active members from each CPHA Region who begin their relationships with new members by escorting them at functions and events, introducing them to other members, orienting them to the programs and benefits of membership and paving the way for the new members to become active in CPHA.
The CPHA Ambassadors are experienced members who are knowledgeable of the benefits of membership and enjoy sharing this information with others one-on-one. As invaluable liaisons between new members and CPHA, their mission is to encourage involvement during the new member’s first year. These volunteer efforts go a long way toward increasing new member satisfaction and renewals, and contribute to a higher first-year member retention rate for CPHA.
CPHA is working diligently to institute a system that connects its members and creates a positive Membership Experience, which is the sum of all interactions the member has with the organization. Be an important part of this membership experience in your professional association.
Role of an Ambassador
Ambassadors fulfill an important role within CPHA. Responsibilities include:
- Making an initial welcome phone call and learning the reasons the new member joined CPHA.
- Introducing new members at events, meetings, trainings, phone conferences, Board Meetings, etc.
- Acting as information resources and mentors for their new members.
- Staying in contact with new members once per quarter during the new member’s first year.
- Providing feedback to CPHA about new member needs and interests, while educating new members.
- Adding to the membership experience by personalizing the membership for the new member.
An ideal Ambassador is:
- Positive and supportive toward the Society and its benefits.
- Interested in assisting others in making the most out of their membership.
