/ Our Community / AMBASSADORS AND ALUMNI
More than 14,000 young Australians have completed a voyage in STS Young Endeavour since 1988, and a further 12,000 guests have joined our community day sails. We love to hear from our alumni, to welcome you back on board for events, open ships and alumni voyages, and to invite you to events both on deck and ashore.
Alumni can stay in touch by joining the Ambassador Program, visiting the ship in port, subscribing to the Salte-newsletter, and following the Young Endeavour Youth Scheme on social media.
Did you know the Young Endeavour Youth Scheme is a recognised education provider on LinkedIn? You can add your Young Endeavour Youth Development Program Certificate to your profile, or add the Young Endeavour Youth Scheme to Education to appear as alumni.
Young Endeavour Ambassadors
Young Endeavour Ambassadors are former youth crew who help us to actively promote the Young Endeavour Program to the public.
Ambassadors can volunteer to assist during ship open days, visit their local school, make a presentation to community organisations, share their experiences on social media, or could be asked to be an interview subject as part of a media interview. There are many ways to get involved.
Ambassadors contribute their enthusiasm and personal experiences to promote the Young Endeavour Program and inspire young people to apply for a voyage of a lifetime.
Why become an Ambassador?
After sailing in Young Endeavour and experiencing the youth development program, we hope that you recognise the benefits you have gained and that you would like to encourage others to undertake this life-changing voyage for themselves.
Being an Ambassador keeps you up to date with what the Scheme and the ship are up to and when new voyages are announced. It will allow us to easily reach out to you should we need your help at an event, open day or as part of a promotional activity. Being an Ambassador is also a valuable extracurricular activity that can be included on your CV and as part of your Linkedin profile.
Ambassadors also get preferential access to special voyages and functions aboard the ship and around the nation.
Being an Ambassador
How you promote the Scheme is up to you, depending on the time you have available and where you are located.
You can get started today by:
- liking our page on Facebook, following us on Instagram, or including the Scheme in your education or experience on LinkedIn
- sharing our posts, or use #YoungEndeavour in a throw back post or story,
- submitting your Ambassador Story to be published on the Scheme website, and
- speaking about your unique adventure with other young people in your community.
For specific examples or ideas about how to promote the Scheme once you have become an Ambassador, login to your account and access the Marketing Materials page from your Dashboard.
