The YMCA Membership Training program is designed to equip staff with the knowledge, skills, and confidence needed to provide outstanding service to current and prospective members. This training focuses on understanding YMCA values, membership benefits, and effective communication techniques to ensure every interaction reflects the YMCA’s mission of strengthening community.
