2010-2011 Chapter Volunteer Application

Important Instructions

Please be sure to save your responses in a document on your computer to avoid losing your work.
The online training materials are the foundation for your Unite For Sight experience, and reviewing the material carefully is necessary to train you in effective programming so that you can make a significant impact. Untrained students would cause harm in the community by propagating false information about eye health, interfering with proper healthcare delivery, and not following Unite For Sight's important chapter policies and procedures. Be sure that your short essays indicate that you read and understood the video and online courses so that Unite For Sight can approve your participation as a volunteer for the organization.
Your training application will be reviewed by Unite For Sight before a decision for approval is made. Incomplete applications will be rejected.
You must complete the training independently, fully, and honestly, and your application must be your own work. We have a fraud detection system. If your submission resembles or plagiarizes the work of any other student, your application will be permanently rejected, and you will not be approved to participate in any capacity with Unite For Sight.
The training materials are different from the materials in previous years. You must read and summarize the 2010-2011 academic year training that is included below. If any training responses are reused from previous years, you will be contacted and reminded to read this year's training requirements. You will then need to resubmit your training and resubmit your $20 donation.
Unite For Sight does not permit applicants to share their applications. Any applicant who shares their application will be disqualified and terminated from participation with Unite For Sight.
