Outdoor Volunteer Leader Training Opportunities from OSI
VOC offers a wide variety of training opportunities through our Outdoor Stewardship Institute (OSI). OSI training courses are a great way for VOC volunteers as well as volunteers/staff from other agencies to develop both technical and leadership skills. OSI courses are open to the public. OSI curriculum is also utilized by other partner agencies in their own trainings.Please note that training is not necessary to volunteer on a VOC project. Trained leaders will instruct volunteers regarding tools and techniques the day of the project.
