Managing New Volunteers & Recording Progress

Keeping track of applications

It can quickly become confusing when you have a number of applications for your role ads. Storing their contacts details securely and within GDPR regulations can be a challenge. If more than one person in your team deals with new applications and a buddy is allocated, it can get confusing for the team as well as the new volunteer.

To help, we have a system on Mattermost using the built-in 'kanban-style' boards. Kanban boards are a way of seeing information linearly and laterally to minimise overwhelm.
