The Challenge

Most Employee Volunteering Programmes Underperform

Research indicates participation often remains low despite programme availability. The constraint is not employee motivation. It is unclear roles, high coordination cost, and delivery models that do not match how teams actually work.

How much does this cost?

Nothing. Our programs are 100% free for corporate partners.

We're funded by donors and grants, not vendor fees. No hidden costs, no upsells. Your team gets full access to our programs, dedicated support, and comprehensive reporting at zero cost.

How long does setup take?

Typically 2-3 weeks from first call to first volunteer session.

Discovery call (Week 1), volunteer onboarding (Week 2-3), matching and launch (Week 3-4). We handle all logistics, communications, and matching so your HR team can focus on promoting the program internally.

What's the minimum commitment?

No minimum. Your employees can join open programs individually.

There's no company-level commitment required. Employees can join our open programs individually with no obligation. For dedicated cohorts, programs typically run 8-12 weeks with flexible scheduling.

How much time do volunteers need?

Language Partners: 30 minutes/week. Career Mentorship: 1 hour/week.

Language Partners commit to 30 minutes per week of conversation practice. Career Mentorship requires 1 hour per week for mentoring sessions. Skills-Based Projects typically require 20 hours spread over 4-6 weeks. All programs are designed to be flexible around employee schedules.

Do employees need teaching experience?

No. For Language Connect, they just need to be fluent English speakers.

No teaching experience required. For Language Connect, volunteers just need to be native or fluent English speakers willing to have conversations. For mentoring, professional experience in their field is enough. We provide all training and session guides.

Why is this free when platforms charge enterprise fees?

TEEI is a donor-funded nonprofit. Programmes are funded by grants, not partner fees.

Our programmes are funded by philanthropic contributions and grants, not by vendor fees. This removes cost barriers while maintaining operational quality. You receive the same structured delivery, safeguarding, and reporting that paid platforms provide.

What reporting do we get?

Quarterly reports via CSR Cockpit with participation data, outcomes, and volunteer feedback.

Reports are delivered via CSR Cockpit and include participation metrics, learner outcome summaries, volunteer feedback, and ESG-ready formatting for GRI, SASB, and UN SDG frameworks. You receive both PDF summaries and raw data exports quarterly.

Is this GDPR compliant?

Yes. We're Norway-headquartered and fully GDPR compliant.

All interactions happen through secure platforms. We're headquartered in Norway and fully compliant with GDPR regulations. Data processing agreements are available on request for enterprise partners.

How does this support CSR and ESG reporting?

CSR Cockpit delivers audit-ready reports formatted for GRI, SASB, and UN SDG frameworks.

CSR Cockpit provides structured visibility into participation, outcomes, and compliance. Quarterly exports include participation data, volunteer hours, beneficiary outcomes, and ESG-ready formatting for GRI, SASB, and UN SDG frameworks. Reports are delivered as PDF summaries and raw data exports.

How do you ensure volunteer safety?

Background checks, safeguarding training, code of conduct, and incident response protocols.

All mentors undergo background checks where legally required. We provide safeguarding training, enforce a strict code of conduct, and have established incident response protocols. Our dedicated coordinator monitors all programs and provides escalation support.
