Yes, ClassLink Ambassador organizations will need to sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with ClassLink.

The Ambassador program was created with ESA organizations in mind, and for now, we expect to only approve ESA organizations. This link is a list of AESA members who may qualify as ClassLink Ambassadors. Not all ESA’s are members of AESA.

• Schools identified by the Ambassador organization get a 10% purchase discount on ClassLink licenses.
• The Ambassador organization gets free training on ClassLink and a member of their team will be a Certified ClassLink Professional.
  
• Serve as a trusted guide for your partner districts, helping them access reliable, high-quality resources.

We are announcing the Ambassador program at an upcoming AESA conference for Jan 1, 2021 availability.  Once announced, ESAs can visit classlink.com/ambassador to register.

To be an approved ClassLink Ambassador, organizations will need to:

• Sign an MOU (and include an initial list of all potential customers who might receive the 10% volume discount, “Potential Customer List”, additional names can be added at anytime).
• A member from the Ambassador organization must complete an online training course and become a Certified ClassLink Professional.
  

After the Ambassador organization is approved, subsequent purchases by Potential Customer List members are eligible for discount and rebate.

• The 10% discount is off ClassLink standard pricing.
• The 10% discount can not be combined with any other discounts, except for multi-year discounts.
  
• Purchases through 3rd party reseller organizations cannot receive the 10% discount.
  
• An Ambassador organization must be selected at the time the 10% discount is applied to the price quote.
  
• Only one ClassLink Ambassador can be selected for each price quote.
  

At least one member of the Ambassador organization must complete an online, ~30-minute training course to become a Certified ClassLink Professional. Certification lasts for two years.

Ambassador organizations are asked the following:

• Be a knowledgeable resource to their schools who may be considering solutions similar to ClassLink.
• Where possible, provide opportunities to host informational meetings with school leaders who are already using or considering the use of ClassLink products.
  
• Where appropriate, include members of the ClassLink team in meetings with school leaders.
  
• Where possible, assist in communicating information and events with school leaders who are already using or considering the use of ClassLink products.
  

• Schools choose their Ambassador organization at the time the 10% purchase discount is applied to their ClassLink price quote.
• Schools cannot choose an Ambassador organization if another type of purchase discount has already been applied to their price quote, e.g. reseller discount, purchasing contract, etc. (doubling-up on discount programs, except for multi-year discounts, is not permitted).
  

Yes, Ambassador organizations can purchase ClassLink for internal use with a 10% discount.
