Training for volunteers is an absolute necessity. For example, a volunteer must be trained in CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) to serve as a lifeguard. However, for many groups the decision about whether or not to have a training programme is not entirely clear.

If recruitment is the first important step of a volunteer program, maintain relationship can be considered as the last step that decides the success of the volunteer program and it can also bring significant rewards for your organization.

No doubt that volunteers are one of the most important and valuable resource of the non – profit and public organization. Due to create value in sustainable community building and development, the organizations involve and commit volunteer to share their voice and message to the community, encourage others to participate in volunteering, and help your organization achieve its mission.

In order for an organization to be able to manage its volunteers coherently, it is necessary to establish a logical, organized and uniform sequence of recruitment, selection, training, follow-up, motivation, recognition and evaluation. To be able to include different visions within the organization, the Volunteer Management Program must be designed with the input of all members who work or are going to work with the volunteers.
