APAC, the Arkansas Public Administration Consortium, sponsors a nationally recognized Certified Volunteer Manager (CVM) program designed for administrators, directors, managers and coordinators of volunteers and volunteer programs.

The CVM program fosters professional excellence in volunteer management. Participants in the CVM program complete six professional management workshops and a management narrative focusing on:

•  volunteer leadership
•  professional standards and achievements; and
•  new developments in the theory and practice of volunteer management

Successful graduates of the program are then recognized as Certified Volunteer Managers by the Association for Volunteer Administration (AVA), an international organization for professionals in volunteerism and volunteer administration.
