Volunteer Training … Building a Strong Team

Volunteers are the backbone of numerous institutions and most non-profit organizations. For many organizations, success depends on their ability to successfully recruit as well as nurture and maintain their volunteer base. Our Volunteer Training supports agencies by grounding their volunteers with a firm understanding and commitment to the agency’s mission. Participants are better prepared to “give and keep their word” about their volunteers commitments.
The Volunteer Training workshop is designed to train and prepare volunteers who have made a commitment to work with your organization. It is of special benefit for both new volunteers and those who may be suffering from volunteer fatigue.
Workshop participants learn coaching techniques. We also address potential problems that may arise during their volunteer commitment, and how to successfully resolve them.
Our workshops will prepare volunteers to perform effectively and gain.

• A clear understanding of their role and goals as volunteers.

• A better understanding and appreciation for the diversity.
• Knowledge of the support and resources available to volunteers.
• Personal “ownership” of the volunteer program.
• A greater understanding of the mission and goals of the sponsoring organization.
• A sense of teamwork among volunteers.
