Volaby Structure

There are a couple of different levels of operations in Volaby and understanding those makes it super easy to using the system altogether!

Volaby Structure

It’s important to understand the basic structure of Volaby to see how Activities fit into the system. As outlined above, we’ve made a few changes to terminology as well. The new names and pages will be referenced constantly throughout this guide and the Volaby application.

  1. Organisation – Your organisation sits at the very top of your Volaby account. Settings such as your application screening questions, onboarding prerequisite, activity roles, and eventually Report Types all sit at the organisational level.

  2. ProgramPrograms are used to break down your volunteers and activities into manageable pools. Programs might be region based, or structured by the type of operation that they contain, or both! The Program Manager role can be assigned to split the work between your leaders and managers.

  3. Activity – The core of Volaby operations, Activities are where volunteers are connected with your mission. Rosters and Reports are all managed through activities; we cover how to use these systems further down the page.

  4. Session – Within an Activity there are Sessions. A Session is simply used to distinguish individual units of work. An Activity may have one session, or several.
