Get Involved - become a Talent Ambassador!
Through the Talent Ambassador program, the Austin Chamber partners with local school districts to connect students with learning opportunities (guest speakers, internships, apprenticeships) from nearby businesses.
The Talent Ambassador is a voluntary program with no cost to the participants. Local businesses simply complete the employer engagement form to let us know how your business would like to help grow a strong regional talent pipeline.
Contact Kwee Lan Teo at kteo [at] austinchamber.com for questions or more information.
