Mark Your Calendar - January 21st NOVAA (Northwest Oregon Volunteer Administrators Association) Meeting

Documenting your work — in numbers, photographs, good record keeping and in other ways — is valuable for a variety of reasons. Communicating with your managers and team, showing the valuable impact of your work, advocating for yourself, tracking your team's progress and — during a career transition — sharing your accomplishments with a hiring manager are all easier to do when you've saved evidence of your efforts.  Join us for the January NOVAA meeting and learn about Documenting Your Work - Keeping Good Records and "Artifacts" of Your Accomplishments.  NOVAA member Amy Potthast, Director of Service and Graduate Education Programs at Idealist.org, will explore how and why volunteer resource managers should take the time to document their accomplishments, and will offer concrete suggestions for how you can get started right away!
