Volunteer Opportunities
COSE Ambassador Program
The COSE Ambassador Program is an important component of membership outreach, involvement, and retention for COSE.
COSE Ambassadors are member volunteers who know the “ins and outs” of the organization, and share their insight and experience to help members get the most out of all that COSE has to offer.
This high energy group consists of members from diverse backgrounds and businesses. Most are small business owners themselves who are service oriented, self motivated, enjoy networking, and support COSE and its mission.
