IT Training in ESN: The basics of Satellite 4 Website Administration

As Web Administrator of ESN UniBucharest, one of my tasks is to bring the knowledge I have gathered about the administrative tools of our website to the volunteers of our association.

The first training I've organized on the topic was held on the 13th of November 2024, for volunteers from the three sections of ESN in Bucharest. During the training, I presented the way to connect to an administrator account on the test website I had created specially for trainings on the topic, and the participants learnt in an interactive manner to build articles of several types on the ESN website.

For this, I created custom tasks for each participant, ranging from creating a blog post about a fictional or real event, a guide for Erasmus students, or a contact page descriptive for the association. Then, the participants explored the methods to alter the main menu of the website, by being tasked with modifying the menu items in different manners.

Overall, the training lasted for two hours and received exceptional feedback from 80% of the participants, which greatly motivates me to keep going and open more trainings on technical topics for more volunteers and not only!
