Maintaining a CERT Program
Step 1: Communicating With Volunteers
Periodic Evaluation
Periodic evaluation is important, even if your program has been up and running awhile. Periodic evaluations can:
- Tell you if your volunteers are maintaining interest or if your program is getting stale.
- Provide input to help you identify additional training that would be useful.
- Identify new ways to utilize CERTs.
- Offer new recruiting ideas.
