Keeping You Informed of Speaking Opportunities

Greetings from SCACPA!

Welcome to The Ambassador Update, SCACPA's blog for community and outreach activities. In an effort to keep you informed of upcoming opportunities, we've added the following SCACPA committees and task forces to the distribution list for blog updates:

• CPA Ambassadors
• Accounting Careers/Academic Relations
• Financial Literacy
• Chapter Officers

In the next few days we'll be posting upcoming speaking opportunities. Please contact SCACPA or the school/organization directly if you are available and interested in getting involved. We have access to a lot of resources to get you ready - just let me know what you need.


Opportunities will be sorted within the main blog by date posted, but for your convenience, wil be labels by Chapter and county in the "Requests for Presentations" section in the right column.


If you serve on one or more of these groups you may receive this email more than once and for that I apologize in advance - I'll work on a way to eliminate the duplicates through our list servs.


Thanks as always for your continued involvement and support of SCACPA!


All the best,

Welcome, SCACPA Ambassadors!

SCACPA Ambassadors are committed to sharing their knowledge and expertise to make a positive difference in the lives of others. With a mission to increase financial literacy for all South Carolina citizens, SCACPA Ambassadors are active in seeking teachable moments for children and teens, young adults, singles, families, seniors -- anyone who might benefit from better financial habits.

Whether speaking to business or civic groups, attending a high school career fair, contributing as an expert to local media or presenting an object lesson to children, hundreds of opportunities surround us every day.

Here on The Ambassador Update blog you'll find public presentation requests, suggestions for making connections in your own community, tips for making timely media pitches and resources for creating a persuasive message for any audience.

By posting comments and questions, you can brainstorm and share with other Ambassadors what works, what doesn't, and creative inspiration for making a positive impact.

We also want to recognize a job well done, so please let us know as connections are made and we'll post your accomplishments here for all to see. Not only will this help us track the success of this program and provide appropriate press coverage, but hopefully also inspire and encourage others to get involved as well.

Thank you for being a SCACPA Ambassador -- we appreciate your commitment to the profession, your association and the cause of financial literacy. Now go forth and prosper!
