By the end of this article, you will be able to:

  • Check volunteers in for an Opportunity

  • Monitor who is currently checked in

Checking Volunteers In and Out

When volunteers arrive for an Opportunity, checking them in ensures their participation is recorded and their hours are accurately reported.

Program Facilitators can manage volunteer attendance directly from the Hours area of their dashboard.

Checking Volunteers In

To check volunteers into an Opportunity:

  1. Log in to your Program Facilitator account.

  2. From your dashboard, go to Volunteerism > Hours.

  3. Click Check-In.

  4. Select List under the Opportunity you want to check volunteers in for.

    • If the Opportunity includes scheduled shifts:

      • Click Select This Shift for the shift you want to manage.

      • The Checked In column shows the number of volunteers currently checked in for that shift.

  5. Select a User Group, if applicable.

    • You can also review key Opportunity details displayed under the Opportunity title, such as:

      • The date and time

      • The number of volunteers currently checked in

      • The number of available slots

  6. Select the checkboxes beside the volunteers you want to check in.

  7. Click Check In Users.

Once checked in:

  • The volunteer’s status in the Checked In column changes from No to Yes.

  • The volunteer appears in the Checked In Now tab.

Checking Volunteers Out

When volunteers finish their shift, you can check them out to mark their recorded participation as complete.

To check volunteers out:

  1. Go to Volunteerism > Hours.

  2. Select Checked In Now.

  3. Under the Check Out column, select the time you want to check the volunteer out of the Opportunity.

    • Check-out time options vary depending on the Opportunity settings and the shift duration type.

  4. Click Check Out.
