Advanced Volunteer Management Training Series
The Advanced Excellence in Volunteer Management series is designed to take your volunteer program to the next level. The basics of volunteer management will be covered with special emphasis on getting the board of directors, executive director, and staff support for expanding volunteer programs. We will also discuss ideas for collaborating with other organizations and businesses. It is targeted to experienced volunteer administrators or those who need to restructure their current program to meet more community needs. This series must be taken as a complete 2-day course. Series given by Chris Smith, TVC Associate Executive Director & Nonprofit Consultant
