Volunteer Alberta Rooted in Action Series
This learning series is a FREE opportunity for all volunteer-utilizing organizations in the community looking for resources to boost their capacity to engage and benefit from a strong volunteer base. It also offers them a chance to collaborate with others, to learn about strategies that are working well and/or to assist with problem solving. Organizations can send a representative to attend all or some of the sessions as they see fit.
The first two workshops are focused on volunteer screening. Participants will explore processes with the support from Volunteer Alberta facilitators. They will evaluate and prioritize what will help them improve and reduce barriers to onboard volunteers:
