From the Ambassadors-mentoring pov - we assign the Mentor as a imperative Step 
to become involved into the Ambassadors Group - and we try to assign tasks 
whenever possible. There are certain regional approaches:
the US-Mentors mostly use a Letter with generic Tasks-
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Welcome_Message_To_New_Ambassadors

in India we have a situation where we encourage to participate in one of the 
various projects within Fedora before applying to become an Ambassador. We 
believe that this provides the necessary skills and experience to handle the 
responsibilities expected of a Fedora Ambassador.
...

all what you listed on
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA/Join
is something that also a Ambassador should able to do or at least to show new 
contributors. We are always looking for different groups inside Fedora where we 
have tasks to be assigned to our Mentees. Do you think it make sense to add 
this as a possible Task to learn how to do real work inside the Fedora 
Project? If yes, should we encourage the Ambassadors Mentors to assign more QA 
Tasks to new Candidates?
