This fast-paced 1- hour workshop will touch on the basic components of a successful volunteer program: ? Onboarding (i. e. job descriptions, applications, interviews, orientations, data management) ? Training (formats, quantity, quality) ? Appreciation & Recognition (how? how often?) ? Retention (How do all of the above affect retention?) This interactive training will incorporate visual aids, brainstorming and small group activities. By the end of the workshop, attendees will have the basic information they need to create a successful volunteer program.
