Elgin County Creates Business in Ontario - Ambassador Program
The purpose of the Ambassador Program is to create a team of local volunteer executives to act as Ambassadors.

A point system will be used to track Ambassador activities throughout the year. This points system has a direct impact on the Elgin County Ambassador Program annual awards and recognition program.


The accumulated points for each Ambassador will be presented at the quarterly meetings. Ambassadors are required to accumulate a minimum of 5 points per quarter. Points may vary based on punctuality and preparedness, at the discretion of the Elgin County Economic Development Office staff liaison. A breakdown of this point system is provided below.
