Dear EUROAVIAns,
the Local board is glad to announce that the application period for the Designated Local Board of the Business Year 2024/2025 is now open the 29th of April at 12:00 CEST.

About being a Local Board Officer

The Local Board represents the Association at local and international level, and it is responsible for the general functioning of EUROAVIA Forlì-Bologna.

It is the decision-making body which controls policies and statements, works on projects, financial matters and achievement of EUROAVIA Forlì-Bologna’s strategic goals. The wide area of activities includes fundraising, internal and external communication, the supporting and planning of events and the coordination of the Working Groups.

Being a member of the EUROAVIA Local Board requires passion, responsibility and organisational skills, but it is also highly rewarding. It is not only an amazing opportunity to grow and challenge yourself at something new, but also a chance to practice and improve your own personal skills. You will meet people from all over the world, from students to top managers of the industry, so it will be a unique opportunity to also enrich your professional career experience!

Eligibility

Any EUROAVIA Forlì-Bologna member is eligible for candidature. Current members of the Local Board are also eligible. The main requirements are Passion and Dedication!

Caching Period

From the date of the elections until the start of the new associative year, the old and new boards work together.

This is the so-called “transition period” during which a Coaching Period is in progress from the old to the new board. Its purpose is to prepare the events for the new associative year in advance and to transfer the know-how acquired from the old board to the next one.
