I work for Americorps I’m trying to thing of different types of specialized trainings people might need as educational volunteers. Most of these volunteers work for after school programs or work as teachers assistants in charter schools. Here is a list of trainings I have so far:

CPR/First Aid
Grant Writing Seminar
Financial Strategies
PR and Volunteer Management
Tutoring Tips
Classroom Management
Learning Disabilities
Educational Software
Staying Healthy on a Budget
Networking
SCIP Training
Life After AmeriCorps-Resume Writing/Interviewing Skills
Conflict Resolution
Organizational Skill:
-Putting together major projects
-Organizing event/field trips
Behavior Modification (Child Psychology)

I should note that all Americorps workers receive less than minimum wage. Most people in Americorps don’t know what they want their career to be and need help in developing professional skills. Our agency specialized in education.

I am not going to use all of these as I am only setting up one training a month. I am just trying to figure out what are the most beneficial and if there is anything I’m leaving out that I should make into a training. Your answers are appreciated

If you posess a degree – or any alternative qualification – then you’ll already be ahead of the bunch when it comes to looking for professions. My pal has a degree and he wasn’t certain what direction to go with it, but he found some good tips on the site in the resource box below which helped him to decide that he wanted to be a lab assistant. There is plenty of guidance on the site regarding alternative professions.
