NEEDED – Education Ambassador Auditors for CCAR Classes!

One of the ways CCAR shines above the others is through our many volunteers. The association receives numerous letters, emails and thank you notes, with compliments regarding how much you enjoyed attending classes at CCAR due to the dedication and hospitality presented.

The Education Committee coordinates countless volunteer hours every month by auditing Education MCE/SAE and designation courses held at CCAR. Auditors work at the registration desk, ensure students are in the room during class, help to keep order in the classroom, and assist the instructor as needed.

With so many opportunities to audit classes at CCAR, the Education Committee is looking for Ambassador-Auditors to help. As the saying goes, “Many hands make light work”. You do not have to be a member of the Education Committee to help with this task. Just send an email responding to this request to Education@ccar.net. Thank you!!!
