Thursday 20 January / 10.30am to 1pm / on Zoom
This practical, interactive, online session will provide an overview of the essential aspects of managing volunteers or coordinating a volunteering programme during the Covid-19 pandemic and beyond. It is aimed at staff who are fairly new to managing volunteers (or have not previously had formal training) as well as those who need a refresher.
By the end of the course, you will:
- Understand the key principles of good practice in managing, supporting and motivating volunteers
- Have identified good practice at each key stage of a ‘volunteer journey’ (eg enquiring, application, interview, induction, support and supervision, exit) as well as in developing roles and managing risks
- Understand the policies and procedures you should have in place to recruit and safeguard volunteers
- Know where to find practical support with volunteer management
- Have identified actions that you can take back to your organisation to improve how volunteers are managed
Cost: FREE. Our training programme is kindly subsidised via a grant from the London Borough of Tower Hamlets.
