There are several debates / discussions going on online right now regarding what the qualifications should be for those in charge of volunteers at a nonprofit, NGO, government program, etc. 

Jayne Cravens details her viewpoint in her blog. She says: "That's a hot topic right now, and there is a LOT of disagreement about it"
