Does your organisation have a sticky problem? To help you solve it, UTS matches you with highly skilled volunteers, picked from the best of our Business School alumni.
The UTS Board Volunteer Program provides social enterprises with:
- 100+ hours of voluntary project work over 12 months
- Cutting edge business expertise supported by voluntary UTS Business School mentors
- A huge range of experience and skills
Your organisation receives 12 months of ‘fresh thinking’ from an MBA alumnus you select for the assigned task, backed up by a UTS Adjunct professor or a Business School mentor. In return, you provide the volunteer you choose with 12 months of non-voting experience on the Board of your organisation. We understand that opening up your Board to an external person exposes them to sensitive matters dealt by your organisation. That is why the UTS Board Volunteer Program covers your confidentiality needs by having ready-made confidentiality agreements for participants to sign.
