We ask that you include what days you are available and, if possible, work more than one day to gain the total 8 hours of volunteer service.
Choose which job you would like to do and we can factor that in accordingly.
A volunteer coordinator will be in touch to discuss your availability. Reminders with detailed information will be sent to the email provided as we get closer to convention.
An orientation day will be scheduled. The day, time, and location will be sent to the email provided on the volunteer form.
NIEA hopes all volunteers are able to attend orientation to ensure a seamless registration and convention.
You will be required to sign in with the volunteer coordinator to clock your hours during convention to make sure you are covering your shifts.
