WEBINAR DETAILS:  As challenging as it can be to attract new volunteers, the worst thing we can do is to discourage or lose them because of an inadequate or unappealing training program. Over the years volunteers have said that one of the main reasons they volunteer is to learn more about this work we all do. Following your training program volunteers need to feel excited, prepared and ready to go. In this webinar we will take a deep dive into how to create a productive recruitment plan. We will then look at the many ways you can put together an exciting and truly educational training course that volunteers will enjoy.
