On February 21, 2021, the fourth Sakhalin robotics championship was held, which brought together 200 participants from 9 (out of 18) municipalities of the Sakhalin region, within 100 guests (parents, fans, caring citizens) and almost 30 coaches and mentors who acted as judges past event. The age of the participants is from 4 to 18 years old, 5 competitive directions and a competition of interactive projects, long-awaited partners who helped to provide a prize fund, master classes for kids and parents, and finally, in addition to medals and cups, winners' diplomas within the framework of glass. This championship became another psychological barrier in terms of the number of participants (although each previous one also crossed the next threshold),But what is important - it was in the covid era and the period of the long lockdown of the educational system that he showed the demand and importance of such an event in the island region. However, before that - four years of work, experience, approvals, mistakes and successes.
How it all began and why
In fact, we are a non-profit organization, a training center dedicated to additional education for children and adults. This organizational form was chosen because earlier, under the law on education, licenses for educational activities were issued only to non-profit organizations. Then, the new federal law of 2012 equalized all legal entities in the right to obtain a license, but when an organization is many years old (we are already 17), changing a legal entity looks like a rather painful procedure. In addition, the status of NPOs provides opportunities for attracting additional funding in the form of grants and subsidies, it is a completely different story.
We have paid educational services (with the exception of training for participants in WorldSkills and Abilympics professional skill championships) for both children and adults. As with any organization, advertising is an important point, and mass events are a great marketing tool that allows you to attract new customers (especially if the existing ones show their success at such events).
