Schedule Volunteers

Scheduling volunteers in VolunteerLocal is tie-your-shoes easy. While our software is flexible in process and presentation, some common ways our software is used include:

  • Self-scheduling: volunteers select jobs and shifts at the time of registration
  • Self-scheduling, after approval: volunteers complete an application, pass an approval process, and then select jobs and shifts
  • Administrative scheduling: volunteers complete an application and administrators place volunteers as they see fit
  • Administrative scheduling (imports): mass import your volunteers from a CSV file

 

Self-scheduling options
VolunteerLocal provides list-views and calendar-grid views to accommodate your needs. We also offer settings such as minimum/maximum shift selection to accommodate your requirements.

VolunteerLocal offers two methods for volunteers to sign up.

  • Application style: implement an application process complete with approved/denied status capabilities and qualifications to put the right volunteer in the right task
  • Sign-up Page style: single-page signup for quick shift selection - no username or password required!

  1. Simple job and shift creation
  2. Password protect jobs or shifts
  3. Add detailed job descriptions
  4. Upload files to jobs - parking passes, course maps, etc.
  5. Assign locations to shifts

As an event production company, we are always looking for great systems to coordinate volunteers. VolunteerLocal has helped streamline our process for volunteer management. We produce numerous events with over 100+ volunteers and have been using VolunteerLocal for the past few years. It's so easy to use. My favorite feature is the communication tool - sending important information to our volunteers. You can set this up in advance and forget about it. Receiving support from the VolunteerLocal team is fast and they will take the extra time to give you more tips if you are not already using them. Overall, I would recommend VolunteerLocal to other event management companies. You all know how important organization is for events and VolunteerLocal has helped make that easier for our volunteer recruitment efforts.
