Who is it for?
The Level 3 Lantra Award in Volunteer Management is suitable for anyone who manages volunteers either in a voluntary or paid capacity.

What is about?
The purpose of the Qualification is to enable individuals and organisations to develop an awareness of the skills needed to manage volunteers and to apply these skills across a wide range of volunteer environments.

What will I learn?
The Award is divided into six units which represent a total of 60 hours (6 credits) of learning.

- Give Feedback to Volunteers:
