Association of Volunteer Managers Conference

AVM’s annual conference is highly regarded as one of the best events for volunteer managers, leaders and heads of volunteering.

It will provide you with the opportunity to gain insights from industry experts, share best practices and network with a wide variety of people from across the volunteer management sector.

The conference is an online two-day event making it easy for you to attend from wherever you are based.

Each day will feature a keynote speaker, a variety of workshops, and a panel discussion, which are all designed to inspire, educate and challenge you to think differently about what you do.

Video recordings of all the sessions will be made available to delegates after the conference, so that you can replay them at your leisure.

You’ll also be able to attend our dedicated Networking sessions to help you make new connections and share ideas, knowledge and experiences with your fellow delegates.

And the conference sponsors will be running Meet the Sponsor sessions, giving you the opportunity to speak to them about the products and services that they offer.
