Digital in Volunteering Toolkit
As you may know, late last year we launched the Digital in Volunteering Toolkit. We’ve been developing this toolkit and surrounding resources for a while now alongside Gethyn Williams and our partners at the Association of Volunteer Managers.
Part One of the Toolkit is out now and is all about helping you get ready to embrace digital in your role.
Parts two and three are coming this year, so stay tuned for updates.
We’ll also be looking to kick-start the Community of Practice very soon. This will be a space for volunteer managers and leaders to:
- Access – hear about future Toolkit updates and related training opportunities.
- Learn – share digital knowledge and experiences with their peers
- Influence – bring our collective voice together to advocate for our needs in digital technology
The Community of Practice is all about empowering you to embrace digital transformation confidently. It’s a vendor-neutral space that we hope will play a key role in some significant digital agendas coming to volunteering next year. We’d love for you to join us. You can sign up for the community of practice and get your hands on part one of the toolkit here:
Why do we need a toolkit?
The volunteer landscape is evolving faster than ever. The COVID era has reshaped who volunteers and what they expect, while social changes challenge traditional recruitment and retention approaches. With digital technology also advancing rapidly, this toolkit offers Volunteer Managers timely support to re-evaluate the role of digital within their organisations, allowing them to adapt and thrive amidst these shifts.
What’s in the toolkit for me?
The toolkit is perfect for any volunteer managers and leaders. But anyone involved in the volunteering world will find it useful! It tackles big questions for the future, such as:
- How can we prepare for the impact of AI?
- In what ways can digital help us be more inclusive?
- What exactly is open data, and how can it add value?
Through a range of practical advice and shared learnings, the toolkit empowers Volunteer Managers to adopt the right digital solutions on their own terms, addressing real-world challenges in volunteer management.

Monthly TeamKinetic Masterclasses
Wednesday 5th February, 10:00am – 11:30am on Managing Criminal Record Checks
Criminal record checking is super important in some organisations and we have some great tools to help out. We also have a great end-to-end in-app facility for generating and checking identity and criminal history. No more in-person or post office identity checks!
You can see all upcoming training sessions and masterclasses within your system by going to Help & Support → Extra Training.
We’re also always looking for new topics to cover in these Masterclasses. If there’s anything regarding the TeamKinetic system that you’re not quite sure on, you can suggest it and we’ll add it to our list of topics to cover.
Please email alex@teamkinetic.co.uk with the subject ‘Masterclass Suggestion’, or use the live chat function on our website to pop in and suggest it there.
