Dear friends,
It is a pleassure to get in touch with you again and let you know about our latest news and projects. On our last report, we shared some of the activities that took place on the first months of the year, in which we accompanied our young students in their transition from school to higher education studies.
In this opportunity, we are very proud to share with you all some of the different actions that we were able to carry out with a lot of effort and commitment in these months:
Webinars: in order to provide tools for those young people who are pursuing their higher education, we held 2 webinars:
*"How to prepare and take a good exam". It was a workshop provided by the Pedagogical Department and the Universidad Tecnica Nacional (UTN) from Concordia. 58 students from different provinces of the country participated.
Together with Virginia Argento (volunteer and specialist in Communications) we held a workshop on Public Speaking for the presentation of exams and assignments. More than 100 young people from Cimientos and other allied organizations participated in it. Topics such as: fear of making oral presentations in public and tips to develop oratory were worked on. The workshop was very well received by participants. We invite you to listen to Virginia´s testimony -> https://fb.watch/8iKb1ZY8ls/
2nd Virtual National Youth Meeting: it was held in July and it was organized together with our “Future Graduates” team. The meeting was designed for students of the last two years of high school and already graduated youth. Professional panels, talks and workshops took place during 4 days addressing different topics in relation to the “day after school”. We had a participation of 284 young people over the four days (and 394 views on YouTube) and the recommendation indicator / Net Promoter Score (NPS) was 84%.(https://www.linkedin.com/posts/fundacioncimientos_somoseducaciaejn-somosfuturo-somosoportunidades-activity-6824467850531500032-7GJT)
