About the Alliance for Innovation Ambassador Program

Alliance Ambassadors are the proponents of innovation within and throughout your organization and profession.  We work diligently to provide Ambassadors with opportunities to grow their innovation skills through unique learning opportunities and specialized programming.   

The Alliance for Innovation Ambassador Program is meant to increase overall awareness and engagement of your organization in Alliance activities, ultimately providing member communities with quick access to thousands of case studies, best practices, policies, procedures, resolutions and programs. 

"I have benefited greatly by being an ambassador for the Alliance for Innovation.  I've learned more about the alliance, felt a stronger connection and taken advantage of great opportunities for learning.  I've been able to target and share these opportunities with others in our organization and they, in turn, have become more engaged with the alliance." 

-Vickie Atkinson, Organizational Development Manager, City of Durham, North Carolina
