2. How to Manage Volunteers
Volunteers will have different reasons and motivations in choosing to volunteer their time. They
may opt to volunteer to develop their skills, gain experience or give something back to the
community. It is the role of the manager to effectively recruit, motivate, manage and develop
volunteers to ensure both parties benefit fully from the process.
As a result, this course has been developed to provide learners with the knowledge and skills
required to manage volunteers. On completion, learners will understand how to successfully
recruit, induct and motivate volunteers, the essentials associated with volunteers and the law,
and the key organisational responsibilities.
