Do you also want to inspire young people for engineering?
Become a coach
at GoDare then
At GoDare, we are always looking for enthusiastic coaches. To create the best experience, for both our youngsters and the coaches themselves, it is important that there is enough individual attention. We know from experience that there can be quite a barrier to sign up. That is why we would like to tell you more about what it means to be a coach and what we expect from you. You can also sign up to take a look without any obligations.
What's in it for you?
(in addition to eternal fame)
- You have a morning of great fun;
- You may coach within working hours;
- You are entitled to unique privileges;
- You share your expertise with future generations;
- You contribute to society;
- You develop your technical knowledge;
- You will meet many colleagues.
What "skills" must I have to be a suitable coach?
We often receive the following response: ‘But I am totally not ‘technical’!” That doesn't matter either. You are well prepared for the workshops and there are always (master) coaches who can help you ‘on the spot’. Besides, most workshops are not of a level that requires you to have studied mechanical engineering.
Or: ‘But I speak no or limited Dutch’ Again, that doesn't matter. As soon as you speak basic English, it works fine. Children often really enjoy speaking English and they are often pretty darn good at it too.
It is especially important that you are enthusiastic and dare to explore and experiment yourself.
Privileges
- Looking for an inspiring location for special team occasions? As a coach, you have the option of reserving GoDare spaces;
- Always wanted to show your kids (7-15 years) where you work? During spring-, may- and autumn holidays, we will organise a ‘Bring your kid to work day’;
- Want to impress your kids? Then organise their children's birthday party at GoDare
- Fancy a party? Every year we organise the GoDare coach day;
- Always wanted to create something yourself? We offer our 3D printers and lasercutters at your disposal to realise your own design.
What do we ask of you?
We would like to ask you for approximately 3 mornings a year to coach. That fits the agenda, right? This way, you then gain real experience and that feels and does good. On the other hand, you make it easier for us to schedule enough coaches. Find our sign-up page.
A good preparation is half the battle. You certainly don't have to prepare on your own. We invite you to an introductory meeting to get ready for the workshop. Here there will be room for any questions you may still have. Beforehand you will find all relevant information here .
Finally, we look forward to seeing you at the workshop after your confirmation. Of course, something can always come up, but try to limit it. We and our youngsters are counting on you!
