Start or strengthen your volunteer recruitment and management plans in this two-part webinar series. Participants will explore volunteer motivations and capacities, refine logistics to support retention, and consider ways to improve existing recruitment practices.
While there’s no perfect solution to attracting and keeping volunteers, this series will help you better understand why people choose to get involved and how to develop opportunities that align with their interests and availability. Through an interactive format, you’ll also reframe recruitment efforts in the context of changing demographics and needs—helping you connect more effectively with volunteers ready to support your work.
After this course, participants will be able to:
- Identify the primary motivations of volunteers
- Identify opportunities that meet a variety of volunteer capacities
- Develop volunteer job descriptions and training plans
- Prioritize strategies for recruiting, retaining, and growing volunteer pools
