Tour Training
In order to form a more perfect Free Geek we begin a Tour Guide Training program. This will ensure that individuals get up to date information and improved knowledge of how Free Geek works.
A list of items to be included in the Tour Training (in no particular order):
- Explanation of the 2 main programs and what volunteers do in each program includes:
Repeating information about the programs during the tour to ensure the audience takes in the info How to sign up for a volunteer shift at the front desk How to log hours at the end of a volunteer shift
- Safety includes:
Location of the First Aid Kits What to do if you hurt yourself Exit Locations
- Who to report to in each area.
- How to tailor the tour to your audience, especially if they are a group from an organization
For example: newspaper/media group, open source software group
- How to keep hallways clear and make a path for any items coming through
- Encourage Peer to Peer learning
In the works:
- We are working towards posting placards and fact sheets to help tour guides answer questions and touch on important topics in each area.
- Ideally, it would be great to have a button on the website for large groups to notify us before coming for the tour.
- Possibly create an e-mail dump from the database so we can send a "Welcome" e-mail to new volunteers with more detailed information about Free Geek.
