Course information
Course aims
A course to support line managers in an organisation, where a part of their work is managing volunteers.
Content
Enables line managers to understand how volunteer management relates to their role, and how best to engage volunteers. The workshop and supporting activities will encourage learners to consider supporting volunteers, preparing and planning tasks, recognising their contribution and managing any problems.
How it is delivered
A one-day in-house workshop is delivered at your offices (or via Zoom) for a team of up to 20 people. The workshop will be tailored to your own organisation’s context.
Following the workshop, each learner is provided with an interactive workbook, where they can reflect on the workshop discussions, and relate these to the general frameworks for managing volunteers. The workbook encourages the learner identify how they could develop their own thinking and management practice as a result.
Each learner submits then submits a reflective account, to their programme facilitator, who then arranges a 1-1 professional discussion with the learner. This discussion will last around 30 minutes, and will take the structure of a coaching conversation.
