Module 6: Volunteer Supervision
Conclusion
Looking back on Module 6: Volunteer Supervision, there are a number of concepts and ideas that we would like you to take with you before moving on to the next modules.
Key Takeaways
- Training provides volunteers with the necessary skills and knowledge to perform their role safely and effectively.
- The level of volunteer supervision depends on the complexity and risk of the role, and the amount of support that the volunteer needs to be successful.
- Evaluation is an opportunity to assess how well volunteers are performing assigned tasks, to applaud valuable effort, and to improve or correct problems.
- Recognition can be formal or informal and given on more than one occasion. It should be meaningful to the person being thanked and given in a timely manner.
