Do you want to involve volunteers in computer and Internet-related tasks at your nonprofit organization? This free webinar, to celebrate National Volunteer Appreciation Week (April 19-25), will focus on ways nonprofits and libraries can recruit and screen such volunteers, identify suitable tech-related assignments for them, and ways to support volunteers in these assignments successfully.
Nonprofit staff members can feel a sense of both awe and fear about tech volunteers, and this can lead to misunderstandings and frustrations on the part of both parties. Presenter Jayne Cravens will help you understand how to stay in control of tech volunteering tasks so that the finished assignment meets your organization's needs and the tech volunteer has a satisfying experience.
