Student Volunteering
Education today for change tomorrow
Communiteer is partnering with AVI (Australian Volunteers International) to unite student volunteering and mentoring experiences.
Our education sector has an essential role to play in developing our future leaders as global citizens, aware of the world around them.
Students need connections and guidance to broaden their horizons and tackle real challenges outside the classroom. But above all, they’re seeking to connect their studies to careers with social impact.
Employability
Boost employability scores by building your students’ confidence and skills.
Engagement
Increase student interaction and engagement with customised programs.
Impact

Our Support
We use student volunteering as a vehicle to make meaningful individual, university and societal change.
We empower students to find their purpose, while at the same time developing skills aligned to learning outcomes, making professional connections and developing their social CV.
Through our expert consultation and advisory process, we craft the ideal solution to create greater social engagement and return on investment.
Alongside our solution, we put your program in the best position for success with:
