Campus Ambassador
One of the biggest hurdles to becoming a licensed accounting professional is passing the CPA and CMA exam. But when you join Becker’s campus ambassador program, you get a welcome boost as you approach that hurdle! As a campus ambassador, you’ll work closely with faculty and peers to spread the word about Becker’s Exam Review courses on your campus. In short, you’ll be there to help fellow students have a successful exam experience. In return for successful completion of the campus ambassador program, you’ll be eligible to redeem Becker products and/or services at a preferred rate if not for free!
