The following is required to be returned in order to process new volunteer authorisations:
Participant Assessment Booklets (all pages for each student)
Evaluation Forms
Attendance Register (all relevant sections complete)
A clear headshot image of each individual (either via email or on USB, mailed back to WIRES Training)
To prevent delays, trainers are encouraged to process this as soon as possible after the workshop. To expedite the processing of new volunteers, trainers can scan copies of the paperwork and provide headshot images to training@wires.org.au prior to posting.
