The College’s Volunteer Program offers registrants of the College and members of the public an opportunity to learn more about the regulatory processes governing health professionals generally and naturopaths specifically, by supporting the College’s work by volunteering. It also represents an opportunity to develop your skills and support your community through the effective regulation of a health profession.

Our Volunteer Program includes a skills assessment to ensure that each volunteer is placed in a role that suits them well, and where they will succeed. The program includes several important components to engage each volunteer over the course of the time in their role. This includes:

• Assessment and Placement
• Training Program
• Annual Self-Evaluation and Learning
• Annual Feedback to the College
• Recognition Program

The College’s Volunteer Program provides individuals with two kinds of opportunities. The first is to be appointed by the Council of the College to a committee that provides elements of the regulatory process. A full list of the Committees can be found here.

The second opportunity relates to being appointed by the Chief Executive Officer to an in-field position where you would perform an ‘operational’ role. These roles support the delivery of services of the College, such as Examiners, Inspectors or Assessors.
