How to become an Encore volunteer

Any former Peace Corps Volunteer, Peace Corps staff member, or professional with similar overseas experience is eligible to volunteer with Encore. If you've already registered with us, please log in by entering your email and password at left — and you'll be able to review and edit your information.

Step one: Register with Encore

Please complete and submit part one of our registration form. After completing part one, you will receive an email from us acknowledging receipt and asking you to log in to the web site with your new password to complete part two, which contains details that will enable us to better understand your professional experience in order to notify you of suitable volunteer opportunities.

Completion of both parts will conclude the registration process.

*Any information you provide is completely secured in transmission by SSL. Encore will not sell or distribute any of the data you supply. It will only be used by Encore as outlined above.

Step two: Signing on for a specific volunteer assignment

Encore will email you whenever a volunteer opportunity becomes available. We will provide a precise description of the assignment, the hosting organization(s) and the time period involved. You must respond directly to Encore to be considered for a specific assignment.

If you indicate an interest and your experience matches the qualifications needed for the position, we will schedule a phone interview, during which we will outline the process and expected timeline for this assignment.

We will do our best to respond to your interest in a timely fashion. Please understand we will often have more applicants than we need and that registration on our site does not guarantee placement as an Encore volunteer.
