AMplify DU
DU's virtual recruitment training program prepares chapters for recruitment success
Amplify DU: Recruitment Training Program
The Amplify DU: Recruitment Training Program is designed to prepare chapters to have a highly successful membership recruitment. Held virtually, the program consists of Zoom webinars and one-on-one chapter coaching to help chapters/associate chapters plan, prepare and execute recruitment strategies.
Each chapter is expected to have one primary participant (likely the VP Recruitment) who will engage in all aspects of the program. Additional members (Assistant VP Recruitment, Recruitment Chairs, Recruitment Committee Members, etc.) and advisors are invited to participate.

We walk you through how to facilitate a recruitment training session with your chapter using a ready made PowerPoint presentation that is available to your chapter.
There are other ways to structure your recruitment training sessions, and often, hosting more than one is a good idea. Here are two examples from chapters that can be good to emulate.

Recruitment Resources
NEW RECRUITMENT TOOLKIT
Marketing plays an important role in a chapter's recruitment efforts. The International Fraternity has created a new Recruitment Toolkit aimed to help your chapter market itself year-round to assist in your recruitment efforts. This means sharing the DU story so that PNMs, parents and others on campus know why someone should join DU and what they will get out of DU membership.
This Recruitment Toolkit includes:
- Social media guide
- Social media graphics templates
- Flier templates
- Video best practices
- Links to DU's brand guide/logos
- Includes chapter specific versions of the DU logo
- Includes a link to DU stock photos
- Info about the DU store/licensed vendors
Other Resources
Chapter Vice Presidents of Recruitment can find recruitment resources on our Chapter Resources page under Vice President of Recruitment. This includes position descriptions, bid card templates, PNM referral guides and more!
Make sure to check out the Recruitment Tips section of our DU blog for more ideas and resources.
