Hello AVA Community Partners!
AVA Working Groups will “set the tone” for how things are done in the beginning stages of the AVA Training Centre. The Working Groups will focus on developing policies and procedures for the various AVA programs, and ensure that planned approaches address EDIA and BIPOC needs. Time requirements of volunteers will vary based on AVA Working Group needs, but will likely require more time in the first 6 months. A reasonable expectation may be 10-15 hours over the next 6 months. Support staff will be assigned to each Working Group and this is something you can apply for funding for from AVA.
Please contact Carrie at avatraining@ucalgary.ca or carrie.pohl@ucalgary.ca to let us know if you would like to sign up to be in this working group! The more the merrier!
