4-H Volunteers are required to complete a formal training every three years.
In addition to in-person training offered at the 4-H Office, volunteers have the option of completing an online training.
The online training consists of three parts: 4-H Policy Book Review, Sexual Harassment Training, and ACT for Youth PYD 101 Online Course.
