Volunteer Orientation

Orientation of new Volunteers is critical to their success (and ours), and in a perfect world we would make this one of our top priorities.  We all know that our world is not perfect and often times when a new volunteer needs our attention is the same time our general program is screaming for our attention:  Technology to the rescue.

Online training is not perfect, but neither are we, and in the absence of one on one training, it is a far cry better than nothing.  The Texas 4-H Volunteer Orientation Course helps us fill that gap.  Before the 4-H summer programs kick off, take a little time to see what this Online Orientation has to offer.  Next time you are in a bind to get a new volunteer started this just might be the ticket!

For instructions for registering for the course and previewing the material go to the enclosure.

For what it's worth,
Kevin
