The goal was to train the new members of ESN Messina in order to offer an immersive training with the purpose of acquiring different kinds of skills, notions and knowledge in general.
On the 25th and 26th of February we organized the Local School composed by a very interesting schedule of workshops and seminars to which a total of 23 volunteers participated. During these training days, the first topics covered were the history of our section and the relationship with the national level. Moreover, we centered on the values and the causes of ESN by also analyzing the brand identity, the main steps of the creation of an event, the economic aspect of a local section, an in-depth analysis of the HR side of an association focusing on motivation, empathy and time-management, and a discussion round about what kind of improvements should be done in our association. It was not just a face-to-face training, but also an interactive session characterized by social games in order to amuse the volunteers and team-building moments (for example, we cooked all together during the breaks, and we invented some dances as an energizer after the breaks).
