Certification Program

The North Carolina Society of Directors of Volunteer Services Board of Directors took giant steps towards fulfillment of its principal purpose and objectives when it established certification for its members. The program was launched in the fall of 1981, making North Carolina the second state to adopt such a program. Certification is the highest professional standard of any organization and is an optional peer review program for its eligible members. Certification will provide a guide to self-development and attainment of greater educational competence and higher level of professional standards. If you are interested in the Certification Program, please contact the Certification Chair at certification @ ncsdvs.org.
