Volunteer Training
JA training/orientation is required for all new volunteers. If you have been a JA volunteer in the past, you will not need to retrain. Once you receive a program kit of materials from the JA office, an online training session can be completed at your convenience. In addition, JAWM has created training videos with local volunteers for some of the programs, which can be viewed prior to your classroom visit to help you feel more comfortable with the material.
