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. .
![Page 3: A Word to the Orientation Trainer](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081520/56815141550346895dbf5d2f/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
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.
![Page 4: A Word to the Orientation Trainer](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081520/56815141550346895dbf5d2f/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
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

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.

Florida 4-H History
1902 – the First 4-H Club
1908 – the Clover Emblem
1914 – the Smith-Lever Act
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.

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.
![Page 39: A Word to the Orientation Trainer](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022081520/56815141550346895dbf5d2f/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
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.
