Recertification
In the constantly changing contemporary work environment, the standard of best practices in volunteer management must remain at the highest level of expertise possible. Professionals in all fields are expected to be fully up-to-date in their chosen area of expertise. Employers and customers alike have high expectations of the services provided by certified professionals.
It is this focus on best practices in volunteer management that forms the basis of a recertification program. The CVA recertification guidelines provide a comprehensive framework that will allow a professional volunteer administrator to:
- maintain their CVA status
- continue professional development
- demonstrate a high level of professionalism to employers, colleagues, and the community
Recertification is required every five years to demonstrate your continuing professional development and to retain the right to use the professional appellation, CVA.
The CVA Recertification Packet is provided upon initial certification and includes:
- Recertification Guidelines (PDF): Explaining the specific requirements
- Activity Forms (PDF): For tracking and reporting required recertification activities
- Activity Forms (non-PDF): Forms you can fill out electronically
