The Canaveral Port Authority Board of Commissioners invites Brevard County high school students to apply to become young ambassadors for Port Canaveral. Applications are now open for the 2024 to 2025 school year, and the deadline is June 30, 2024.

The Junior Port Ambassador Program offers local students an opportunity to get to know and understand how a seaport works and the various career opportunities in the maritime industry.

To be eligible for consideration, the student applicant must be a junior in the 2024 to 2025 school year and attending a public school, private school, or homeschooling program in Brevard County, Florida.

All Canaveral Port Authority Commissioners will participate in this year’s program, which is scheduled to commence this summer.

The Junior Ambassador Program introduces students to Port Canaveral partners representing the cruise, cargo, recreation, hospitality, military, and environmental sectors of the Port to help them better understand the education requirements and workforce skills needed for the diversity of jobs and careers in the maritime industry.
