Volunteer Opportunities at VU "People helping people" is the glue that holds our world together. Volunteers have always been the heart and soul of VU. If one of these volunteer opportunities interests you, just click on the link and introduce yourself! Managing Editor: VU presently has more than 100 new courses in development but we need help putting these materials on the Web! Some merely need to be converted from text to web pages; others require rewriting or interaction with experts who want to write courses for VU but need advice on how to proceed. If you have writing, editing, and proofreading skills and would like to help create exciting new courses for VU, apply here. Chat Cafe Web Design Team: Help expand VU's Chat Cafe into a hub for friendship and learning. We're building a new web portal that will feature free tutorials and multiple bulletin boards devoted to discussion and helpful tips on HTML, web design, Javascript, writing, and other popular topics of interest to our global learning community. If you have HTML or graphic design skills and would like to help create and maintain this new site, please contact us. Writer: Develop press releases on VU courses, write feature stories on volunteer instructors and campus events. If you have writing skills and/or prior experience in public relations, can work without supervision, and share our belief that VU's global village classrooms can open the door to knowledge for people from all cultures, countries and walks of life, click here to apply. Calendar/Newsletter Editor: VU's quarterly calendar reaches more than 100,000 subscribers in 128 countries. We're often asked to publish a monthly newsletter of new classes and other useful Internet resources but, alas, we're short-handed and all of our time goes into keeping the VU web site running. If you would like to write and edit a monthly newsletter, click to apply.
