In our basictrainings we always handle 4 subjects – motivation and personal effectiveness, the rol and position of a volunteer, basic principles for communication and setting limits.
In the VA online basictraining supportive volunteering you learn important skills that will help you in your (one-on-one) contact with the person you support. You do this by a combination of online modules and a practice session, during which you can practise the handled subjects.

Objectives and content
VA online trainings combine online learning with a live session to practise the learned subjects. The trainer provides online feedback.

The training consists of:

  • a meet & greet session (via Zoom)
  • five online modules
  • a practice session (via Zoom)
  • online closing and evaluation.

In the online modules you learn the important skills you require for supportive volunteering such as:

  • motivation and personal effectiveness
  • role and position of a volunteer, maatje or buddy
  • basic communication skills
  • setting and guarding limits
  • giving and receiving feedback
  • stimulating and motivating others.
