Volunteer Training Information
Volunteers must complete 10 hours of training before being placed with learners in
the classroom; however, teaching experience is not necessary. Visiting an Adult Education
classroom is an additional training component. In-person training sessions are conducted
in the winter, summer and fall. Completion of training does not guarantee placement.
Interested in completing tutor training online? Find more information for online training
