Managing Volunteers' Digital Access Safely

Volunteers are the heart of most charities – and they often use charity email, shared drives, the CRM, social media and their own devices. This short course shows volunteer managers how to give volunteers the access they need, keep data safe, and remove access cleanly when they move on.

Who this course is for: Volunteer managers and coordinators, team leaders who supervise volunteers, operations staff and small-charity managers. No technical knowledge needed.
