Exist Differently to thrive
Imagine being able to thrive in such a way that you transform the community and organizations you’re a part of. Imagine the freedom to create new communities and organizations when you can’t thrive in the ones you’re currently in. VOL’s online programs for individuals offer two different tracks for those who want to experience this type of transformation and freedom.
If you are interested in creating or supporting a community to exist differently, we recommend exploring our Community track. If you are interested in exploring how to exist differently within your role in an organization, workplace, or want to create your own space, we recommend our Professional Development track.
