We have a new tech volunteer!

Théo joins the International Secretariat

I have finished a Diploma of Higher Education in the IT development domain in 2 years, after my high school diploma. I took a break during my studies to volunteer at SCI. After this volunteering, I want to continue my studies, in 1 year for a vocational bachelor’s degree in IT development.

This will be my first volunteer experience. I will discover a more practical way of learning which is why I choose to volunteer and which I choose also for my studies. I want to learn more about SCI and the world of volunteering.

I want to step out of my comfort zone. Being in another country and improving my English, meeting new and different people, and learning from them, will be a rewarding experience. It is really amazing to be part of this international community. Also, I will improve my level in informatics which is useful for myself, my future studies, and work after.
