    Role of Ambassadors

    AIIM Ambassadors play a crucial role in promoting the association and supporting its members. They actively recruit new members and share AIIM updates and news through social media. When requested, Ambassadors represent AIIM at industry events, conferences, AIIM+ Community Conversation events, and networking functions. They serve as a resource for new members and those new to the industry, offering guidance and being available for brief calls as needed. Ambassadors share knowledge and resources with each other and AIIM, and actively participate in AIIM's Online Community by replying to posts, starting discussions, welcoming new members, and sharing Ambassador-led local events. They provide valuable feedback on AIIM initiatives and member needs.

Ambassadors also receive digital badges and social media assets to promote their standing as an AIIM Ambassador, as well as a special Ambassador logo for use on their website and email communications. Lastly, as a token of appreciation, Ambassadors are granted discounts to select AIIM events, making it more accessible for them to attend and represent the association.
