Share your knowledge and grow your network
September 2022 sees the launch of the Covidence Student Ambassador Program, a global initiative that aims to encourage more students to start their evidence journey with Covidence. We are excited at this opportunity to share Covidence with students all over the world and to do this, we need your help.
Here is how it works:
As an ambassador, you will become a Covidence expert user and expand your network. You will encourage others to try Covidence, via social media posts and by running an introductory training event at your institution. We will provide you with the materials and the training you need to deliver this successfully.
Ambassadors receive a range of benefits:
- Your profile on the Covidence website
- Authorship of a blog post on the Covidence website
- Opportunity to apply for an internship with Covidence (remote working)
- Chance to test new product features ahead of release
- A letter of recognition
