The document outlines the Naviance Ambassador Program, which trains students to help promote Naviance, a college and career planning tool, at their school. It discusses creating a Naviance week with activities to generate excitement and ensure all students register and learn to use Naviance. The ambassadors are trained to communicate consistent messaging to spread awareness of Naviance. Their greatest asset is engaging fellow students. The goal is to establish a culture where Naviance is an integral part of college and career preparation.
