► Volunteer Accreditation

The UWS Volunteer Accreditation Scheme is a new initiative which has been created to make sure you are recognised for the time you give up to volunteer for the university, students association or other organisations.

The scheme will reward and recognise students’ voluntary work whether it is part of coursework or curricular activities. So if you are a student who is a student rep, club or society member, our doing a voluntary placement for you course or are involved in other volunteering or campaigning activity you can become part of this new accreditation scheme.

It is a great way of building your transferable skills (which is a phrase you’ll hear a lot of this year) and can be included in your PDP or portfolio.

The scheme will take account of the skills you develop while being a volunteer and will recognise this work on three levels, Bronze, Silver and Gold. Training will be provided at each level and will enable you to develop your skill base and build your CV.
