Involving volunteers can be a rewarding and challenging role. Managing volunteers effectively means that both you and the volunteer enjoy the experience of volunteering. When any resource is managed effectively there's a greater likelihood the organisation will continue to develop, and the people invovle will want to volunteer again! We support organisations with information, guidance and learning on how to work with and manage volunteers. If you would like to discuss your learning requirements, gain a national recognised qualification, find out how to develop your volunteer management strategy or find tailored learning to suit your needs try our links below or contact us: vds@vds.org.uk
We can help you to develop skills and qualifications in the management of volunteers and volunteering and provide information on measuring the impact of your volunteers and assess your practices against Investing In Volunteers - the UK's quality standard for the management of volunteers. Volunteer Development Scotland is a branded Learning Centre and a registered SQA Centre.
