Certified in Volunteer Administration (CVA)
Initial Certification
PAVRO and Volunteer Toronto are again teaming up to offer the CVA Study Group. The next Study Group will run from July to October 2026 just in time for the October 1-14 Exam Window. Stay tuned for new dates and more information.
Join our study group to get ready with your peers! By participating in this CVA Study Group, you will receive:
- A wealth of resources on the eight volunteer administrator competencies
- Considerations and examples from the world of volunteer engagement
- 5 live discussions (via Zoom) diving into key topics and experiences, following a study schedule
- An interactive self-assessment tool to determine your areas of strength and growth
- A multiple choice example test to help you practice the exam-writing experience
PAVRO members get access to all the learning materials and live discussions for $50!
This study group is also a great learning forum for those who may be new(er) to volunteer engagement and are looking for an affordable way to learn. While the discussions and materials are geared towards those preparing to challenge the exam, the discussions, online resources, and opportunities to connect and network are valuable to everyone who leads volunteers (paid and unpaid).
