Training
The IBCC provides training for many different aspects of volunteer work. From an array of archival tasks to tour guiding, training is provided by experienced staff members or external agencies. For some roles training can also be delivered through our Volunteer Portal using instructional videos and downloadable documents.
Recognition
The IBCC Volunteer of the Month is covered in the newsletter which is sent out to 10,000 subscribers each month. We also cover this award on our social media.
There is also a certification scheme so volunteers are able to evidence their growing skills set for future employers as well as have a record of their personal achievements.
Social Life
Each year we run a number of events for our volunteers. These provide a great opportunity to meet up with other volunteers and make new friends.
The online Volunteer Portal is a great place to find out about your fellow volunteers and see what their key interests are. The forum also allows you to communicate with other members and is a great place to ask questions on areas of volunteering and research that you may be finding tricky.
