Inviting an Ambassador or speaker to engage with your students can provide a extra dimension to your careers education offer. Hearing directly from a professional, student or speaker about their experiences, education pathways and how they use geographical skills and knowledge in the world of work can help raise awareness of the opportunities available through studying geography and related subjects.

The Society's Ambassador scheme

Through its professional networks, the Society is able to offer access to Professional Ambassadors - geographers from the workplace who are willing to visit schools or talk to students online about their career and education pathways, what their job entails and how they use geographical skills and knowledge to make a difference. Learn more about the Professional Ambassadors scheme or access our database of available speakers.

Speaker schemes from other organisations

Many universities run their own Ambassador Schemes which send students into the classroom or offer outreach activities and events involving undergraduates who are studying geography. Find out what schemes universities offer and how you can contact them.
