Training

To ensure that you (and the people that you are helping) get the most out of your time volunteering we will provide you with training.  It must be stressed that volunteers need no previous training, experience or qualifications; they just need enthusiasm, energy and a little commitment.

As with most things the best way to learn and gain experience is to go out and try something, get involved in a project and learn new skills as you go.  However, we believe that training is also a very important aspect of the Vteams work and we realise that volunteers are more confident and effective when given training, particularly if they have never done anything similar before.

Our training is free, fun, flexible and hands-on.  It includes Volunteer Induction, Child Protection, CV skills, Volunteering Abroad and Project Leader training.  This gives you the skills and information needed so you can start volunteering feeling fully prepared.

The best way to keep up to date with the training that is available is to keep looking at the website and to make sure you are on the Vteams mailing list.
