Part two: After developing your orientation goals the power point then provides an array of slides to chose from to create your unique orientation Part three Needs to be added connection to plan of work impactsIt is not intended to use in its entirety.

  2. Orientation The Most Important Training you will conduct with your 4-H Volunteer “Organizational socialization is the process where employees learn about and adapt to new jobs, roles and the culture of the work place.” Klein and Weaver (2000) It can be inferred that this holds true with new volunteer leaders in the 4-H program. .

  3. Key Elements that Every Orientation should include: • Orientation is the process to introduce new leader to the mission, vision, values and basic information of the organization. • It will be your first opportunity to express your goals for the program, and your expectations of the programs leaders. • Orientation builds a firm foundation in which to develop additional training. • Effective orientation builds on adult learning practices. • The following tips are to help you build a solid orientation.

  4. Orientation Topics • Orientations vary from county to county and with different volunteer groups. Typically they contain some or all of the following categories. (Remember Orientation is not a in-depth training but an overview . Typical orientations last from 45 minutes to 1½ hours). • Basic background and structure • Youth Development and impacts of 4-H • Clubs and Projects • Roles of volunteers • Policy and procedure • Activities and events • Recognition and awards • Plan ahead what you would like to accomplish in your orientation

  5. Training Preparation Cont. • Create a welcoming atmosphere and let volunteers know that the 4-H office is there to support them • Do not over do it. Orientation is only the beginning training. After a long day at work no one wants to sit through a two hour training. You can require additional trainings, in the future. • Do not lecture. Power points are great but remember real learning will occur by active participation.

  6. Using This Power Point • Now that you have your orientation goals established, chose slides that you would like to include in your orientation. Please add your own contact and county information and slides that are unique to your circumstance. The slides are categorized into different sections for your convenience. • Remember to make it fun and allow time for socializing! • Thank you to Leon County 4-H and Bill Heltemes for materials used in this power point. • Created by Kelley Hiemstra, NW RSA

Florida 4-H History An American innovation, the 4-H youth development program of the Cooperative Extension originated at the turn of the century because of a vital need to improve life in rural areas. Introducing improved methods of farming and homemaking, 4-H taught youth to "learn by doing." The yearly program in one of those early clubs consisted of growing corn, planting a garden, testing soil, club meetings, and visits to club members' plots and exhibits. 1902 – the First 4-H Club 1908 – the Clover Emblem 1914 – the Smith-Lever Act

  37. Awards and Recognition ADD COUNTY INFORAMATION

  38. Basic Beliefs about Recognition in 4-H Youth Development Programs Recognition builds positive self-esteem (for competencies demonstrated). Everyone needs to be recognized at some time for their efforts. Recognition is more meaningful when it occurs soon after it is earned and is related to a specific task. Appropriate recognition for an individual varies depending on their age, past experiences, family lifestyle, community and cultural heritage.

  39. 4-H Basic Beliefs about Recognition Recognition is more meaningful when given by someone closely related to the person. Recognition motivates people to excel and take worthwhile risks. Individual choices in learning and participation need to be allowed and recognized. For more information on Recognition go to http://florida4h.org/staff/Awards_Handbook/index.shtml
