The success and popularity of the VOLT program is evident by the continuous positive feedback received from the program's graduates, mentors, and many volunteers across the Regions. In response to this positive feedback, the VOLT Ad Hoc Committee has decided to make the IEEE foundational content available to a larger audience. For 2015, the program will consist of two tracks.

Track 1: All IEEE volunteers are invited to participate in Track 1, which will cover key organizational units of IEEE and focus on the foundational knowledge of the organization. These prerequisite courses are available to all IEEE volunteers through the IEEE Center for Leadership Excellence (CLE) site.

Access Track 1 courses (Log in with your IEEE Account and choose the “Volunteer Leadership Training Pre-Requisite” category to begin)

Track 2: Volunteers who complete the foundational Track 1 within the CLE site by 24 August 2015 can apply for consideration for Track 2 of the VOLT Program, starting in September 2015. Track 2 will last three months and focus mainly on leadership-related topics. Participation in Track 2 will be determined by the VOLT Ad Hoc Committee based on predefined criteria.
