Benefits of Volunteering
Leadership
Develop and enhance your leadership skills through volunteering. ICF Virginia offers leadership roles that provide real-world experience managing and leading teams. The teamwork and leadership skills developed by participating on a committee – or leading one – will help you hone the skills employers value in their employees.
Professional Development
Enhance your resume by becoming involved. Employers like to see involvement in the community and a commitment to your career. ICF Virginia volunteering offers both in one resume statement.
Networking & Connections
What better way to make meaningful connections than working alongside other professionals while you demonstrate your skills? Meet new people and work as a team to give back to the coaching community and/or run the business of ICF Virginia. You’ll develop lasting friendships while you expand your network.
