Inspire. Mentor. Lead.
Become an ACHPER Teacher Ambassador and help shape the future of health and movement education.
What is the ACHPER Ambassador Program?
The ACHPER Ambassador Program connects passionate professionals who want to lead locally and influence nationally.
Ambassadors are active advocates for movement education in their schools, clubs, communities, and across our professional network. They mentor peers, showcase great practice, and bring to life the belief that movement changes everything — it’s way more than learning how to play a sport or game or deliver an experience, it’s all about helping others to learn to love movement, for life.
This is your opportunity to be a voice, a connector, and a champion for active, healthy futures.
What You’ll Do
As an Ambassador, you’ll:
- Inspire others by sharing your practice and story
- Mentor and support colleagues in your school, club or region
- Help showcase great movement education through ACHPER platforms (e.g., “ACHPER and Me” videos, blogs, case studies)
- Contribute to events, webinars, or professional learning opportunities
- Connect with fellow ambassadors and ACHPER staff to grow your leadership
Time commitment is flexible and designed to fit your professional and family life.
What You’ll Gain:
- Recognition as a national leader in movement education
- Access to exclusive Ambassador events and leadership development
- Opportunities to share your voice in ACHPER publications, podcasts, and campaigns
- Connection to a vibrant professional community of teachers and other professionals driving change
- Amplification of your impact — help shape ACHPER’s work and influence national conversations
- Tools, resources, and support to help you lead local initiatives or grow best practice in your setting
Who We’re Looking For:
We’re seeking teachers and other professionals who:
- Are passionate about HPE, health promotion, and inclusive movement education
- Want to be active in their community — at school, in clubs, or across regions
- Believe in the power of education to shape a more active, connected, and healthy Australia
- Want to grow their leadership and help others thrive
Why This Matters
Movement is essential to thriving lives — but it’s disappearing.
Across Australia, inactivity, disconnection, and declining physical literacy are putting our future at risk. By 2050, half of all children and adolescents are projected to be overweight or obese.
Meanwhile, ACHPER’s national network delivers more than 250,000 hours of movement education every week, and sport clubs and associations add hundreds of thousands more through community-based programs. That collective effort is already life-changing — but it’s not yet enough.
To reverse the national health trajectory, we must expand, amplify, and elevate the people at the heart of it: our teachers, instructors, coaches, trainers.
That’s where ACHPER Ambassadors come in.
You’re not just part of the movement — you’re leading it forward.
You help students discover a love for movement, connect with community, and build healthy, active futures. And when we support and grow your impact, we shift the future — one school, one classroom, one life at a time.
