VRMS Coordinator Training
Training Steps
UCalgary requires that all volunteers are managed under the Volunteer Registration and Management System. This includes registering volunteers on Better Impact; and adhering to a collection of standardized processes.
We have focused this training program on the tasks necessary for meeting legislative compliance. Please follow the steps in the order they are presented.

To get the most out of the VRMS training, you should have administrator access to a Better Impact account before starting. If your department/program does not already have a Better Impact account, please submit a request. Otherwise, ask your account's Dept Admin to arrange for this access.
