FedEx announced the third cohort of the FedEx-HBCU Student Ambassador Program yesterday, Feb. 21, which includes Fayetteville State University.
The program launched in 2022 as an expanded five-year, $250,000 commitment to FSU, a part of a $5 million pledge to Historically Black Colleges and Universities. The program helps equip HBCU students for the workforce after college.
The two students representing FSU in the third cohort are:
“Providing HBCU students with the exposure and opportunities to imagine what’s next beyond college is invaluable,” said Jenny Robertson, Senior Vice President, Global Brand and Communications, in a press release. “The continued support FedEx provides to HBCUs is one way we can help produce a strong talent pool of future leaders, creating additional opportunities to excel in their future career journeys.”
The third cohort will meet later this spring and participate in quarterly sessions focused on but not limited to interview training, mock interviews and resume development. Ambassadors will also have the opportunity to apply for internships and experience mentorship opportunities with various FedEx leaders.
FedEx offers student ambassadors and additional HBCU students from the eight institutions several practical experiences each year, including:
