Registrations for Meet and Code 2021 are well underway as we head into August. For the fifth year in a row, nonprofits are invited to submit their virtual coding or digital events via the Meet and Code website to receive up to 500€ in funding to bring their events to life.  

Nonprofits, if you’re planning on registering but struggling with how to implement your event idea virtually, then we’ve got the perfect solution for you - Meet and Code 1-on-1 Coaching Sessions! Hosted in both English and German, we’ve selected dedicated, corporate volunteers who are ready to support you with their expertise, skills, and industry experience.

So, what is a 1-on-1 Coaching Session all about?
Are you wrestling with questions about specific topics when it comes to your work and your nonprofit organization? Are you looking for a sparring partner from the corporate world to discuss your current challenges and receive honest feedback? Then our free-to-access 1-on-1 Coaching Sessions are the perfect solution.
All you need to do is bring yourself, your challenges, and your questions to a 90-minute session with one of our corporate volunteers. 

Kicking off the 1-on-1 Coaching Sessions: How to set up a virtual workshop? 
Since the start of the Covid-19 pandemic, virtual collaboration has become essential. Collaborating within your team or with workshop participants is a skill we all need to constantly learn and improve on. During our first 1-on-1 Coaching Session you’ll learn more about virtual conferencing tools, their features and how to set up and run a virtual event.

If this sounds like something you need assistance with then join us in August:

  1. Tuesday, August 10, from 15:30 – 17:00: Wie setze ich einen virtuellen Workshop auf? (in German only) Register here.
  2. Wednesday, August 11, from 15:30 – 17:00: How do I set up a virtual workshop? (in English only) Register here.
[Please note: Seats for the first round are limited to 10]

How the 1-on-1 Coaching Sessions work: 
  1. Decide on a topic that you and your organization need support with and register for either the English or German sessions. Please note spaces are limited.
  2. Before your session, prepare a few questions that you would like to discuss with your coach to get the best results.
  3. On the day, after a short welcome round with your coach, we will send you to a virtual breakout room for your session.   
  4. You will have about 90 minutes to discuss your strategy, your ideas, and your questions. Afterwards you will have the opportunity to exchange contact details with the volunteer should you need further guidance.   
  5. Afterwards everyone will be brought back together again for a short feedback session. 
We look forward to seeing you in a 1-on-1 Coaching Session soon.
