Managing Volunteers & The Third Sector Main Page

AM Training specialise in providing professional Volunteer Management training.

Our Courses To Order page sets out a range of courses which we have delivered throughout the Voluntary Sector. We are always pleased to discuss combining elements from different courses, or indeed new topics, to meet your organisation's specific needs. We can develop a course around your organisation's particular training needs, in which case you may want to consult our Getting The Training You Want page.

If you would like a nationally recognised qualification in managing volunteers, the Lantra Awards Distance Learning Course may suit you best. Some organisations encourage whole teams of volunteer managers to take this qualification so they can support one another through the process.

All our volunteer management courses are designed with an eye to the new National Occupational Standards.
