New perspectives in data collection and retention – Part Two
In Part One we looked at two reasons why you need to take a critical look at your current data collection processes.
In this, Part Two, of the series we’re going to look at some common pieces of information that are collected about volunteers and how you might want to reconsider your approach to their collection, retention and deletion. There isn’t room to fully explore a variety of examples but hopefully it will give you enough of an idea of what to consider in your own organization.

While you might think it may take too much time to keep up with this, any good volunteer management software should help make this easy, especially compared with Excel or paper. So ask about this when exploring new software options.
If you have any questions about this, feel free to email me at tony@betterimpact.ca or come to the LIVE conference in Ottawa and my session on this very topic.
