Volunteer for ALPSP
We welcome your input to learn what support and services you need most. As an ALPSP member, there are several volunteering opportunities available, allowing you to meet new colleagues, give back to the community and input into our activities.
Volunteer opportunities

- Join a working group. These generally involve between 4-8 calls over several months, and focus on specific initiatives.
- Propose a topic for a training course, webinar, conference session or networking event.
- Become a mentor or mentee. Our mentorship scheme is open year round.
- Suggest a topic or produce a video/podcast for our Careers Hub resources.
- Use your knowledge and experience to tutor on one of our virtual training workshops. We offer training to all potential tutors via our Training Skills Workshop, run by The Centre for Strategy and Communication.
