What is an SHPEP Ambassador?
An SHPEP Ambassador is a former scholar (e.g., MMEP, SMEP, SMDEP, SHPEP, MSIPI) who volunteers to recruit eligible applicants for the program.
What are the responsibilities of an SHPEP Ambassador?
SHPEP Ambassadors are expected to recruit eligible applicants using promotional materials provided by the National Program Office by:
- Host or participate in campus outreach activities.
- Share program information with prehealth advisors and other influential college/university staff.
- Share your experience as a program participant with students.
Recruitment Incentives
Being an SHPEP Ambassador offers valuable resume-building experiences and professional development opportunities such as public speaking and networking. All ambassadors who successfully meet the program’s expectations will receive a certificate of service from the SHPEP National Program Office (NPO).
The top five ambassadors who recruit the most students for the application year will receive a financial award to offset the costs of attending a health professions conference, preparation courses for graduate exams, or other school-related expenses.
