In this interactive session, participants will explore the seven core competencies defined by the Council for Certification in Volunteer Administration (CCVA) that shape effective management and leadership in volunteer engagement. Through discussion and reflection, you’ll discover how these competencies can serve as a roadmap for advancing your career and strengthening your organization’s ability to engage volunteers and community. 

What You’ll Learn

• Review the 7 competencies that define professional management and leadership in volunteer engagement.

• Explore practical strategies to apply these competencies in your own career journey and take the next step in professional growth.
