Council for Certification in Volunteer Administration

CVAs spotted! 🎯

Spotted! 🎯 We found Marissa Olivas, MPA, CVA on the job at City of Coppell in Coppell, Texas! When we run into a CVA at work we have to ask, “How does having your CVA help in your role?” 🗨️ Marissa shares… “I use my CVA at work to be a volunteer coordinator leader in my organization. One of my organization's core principles, is “making things better” and my CVA helps me do that. While I had years of experience working with volunteers before earning my CVA, the credential gave me added confidence in my knowledge and skills. I enjoy being a resource for others across our organization, where I serve as the Chair of the Volunteer Coordinator Committee, mentoring coordinators and helping strengthen volunteer programs. Looking forward to renewing my CVA in 2028!" ⭐ Our vision at CCVA is to live in a world where competent, passionate leaders effectively engage volunteers. We're proud to showcase Marissa using her CVA every day to impact her community. #CVAsAtWork
