Description
Volunteer Surveys are a common element of most Volunteer Programs, however I have often found completed Volunteer Surveys left in a drawer, no data was taken from them, no improvements were implemented, in fact, they were just gathered and then forgotten. This is surprisingly common. Many Volunteer Managers know they should have a Volunteer Survey but they're not particularly clear on why they need it.As data becomes a more and more important element of modern business, your leadership team will be expecting more data from you. If your CEO comes asking and you have nothing to tell them, you don't look good, but in addition your program might quickly become expendable, no matter how vital it actually is to the running of your organisation. As a Volunteer Manager it's your job to be ahead of the game, collecting data that can easily and dramatically demonstrate the enormous value your volunteers bring to your organisation, and the Volunteer Survey is your first step. In this course I will teach you what sorts of things to include in your survey, what sorts of questions to ask, how different question styles will impact your results, what to do with your results and how to use your Volunteer Survey to build respect and admiration for your volunteers and your program. This course has video content, in addition it has worksheets with questions to ask yourself, examples of Volunteer Survey questions and ways to organise your reports to make your data more impactful, be sure to check out the resources to get the full value of the course. The skills you learn on this course will help you develop increasingly more effective and efficient Volunteer Surveys over time, we'll also talk about other ways you might be able to make your program more measurable.I hope you find this course useful and use it to improve your program and empower your volunteers to do more to change the world.
