ACU Ambassador

The purpose of the role of ACU Ambassador is to facilitate stronger communication channels between the ACU and member institutions by creating a main point of contact to communicate information in both directions.

The Ambassador should ideally be someone other than the Executive Head of the institution who has an insight to, or oversight of the university’s international strategy, collaborations and partnerships. For example this could include: international mobility, research partnerships or strategic partnerships. They must be able to identify the correct contacts internally for a variety of opportunities on offer from the ACU. *
