Do members have to keep track of their hours during their AmeriCorps service?
Yes. The Corporation requires that all AmeriCorps members keep accurate time records. The records must distinguish between the time spent performing project work, called “service hours” (e.g., developing community education clinics/workshops for volunteers, managing and recruiting volunteers, conducting outreach to students, etc.) and time spent receiving training, called “training hours.” Sample time logs are provided to members at the start of their service.
