Volunteers needed

Members will volunteer when they have all the details about what is being asked of them. No one wants to accept a task that is open-ended, vaguely defined, or requires a large percentage of their free time.

Please be very clear and specific about the skills needed, if there is training available, whether this is a one-time job, or a repeating task, and how many hours the volunteer can expect to put in for PSA.

Instead of one tiime-consuming, labor-intensive job, can the task be broken into smaller components and given to 2 or 3 volunteers instead of one?

Is this a task that would be more efficient and fun if several people were working together?

Will the volunteer be supported by you (or the PSA leadership)? Who can the go to for support, questions, praise and guidance?

What is the task? *

Give a short description of the task. If the task has several components, consider using bullet points for clarity.

How much time will this job take? *

number of hours total, or number of hours each week/month/quarter

What skills / training are required? Be specific. *

For example: computer skills - beginner? intermediate? advanced? knowledge of spreadsheets?

If needed - is training available? *

(For example: Smartsheet or Firespring - how much time is needed for training and who will be teaching them?)

Deadline? (does this task have a set deadline, or is it ongoing? If ongoing, are there weekly, monthly, or quarterly reviews/reports needed?)
