As you may know Open Days will take place at the end of September and a lot of volunteers are needed. Don’t wait more and sign up now!

Why volunteer?

To be a volunteer during the Open Days is to serve the Organization for half a day (or more) and reply positively to the Director-General's request. Come and strengthen our teams, help make the Open Days a success and seize this opportunity to

  • take part in a unique and friendly event which only occurs every 4 to 5 years
  • be an ambassador for CERN - be proud to talk about your areas of work and welcome the visitors to our sites
  • meet new colleagues

Who can volunteer?

All CERN people, no matter the contract, aged 18 and over. Retirees, family members of CERN people and ex-CERN people are also welcome. If you don’t/no longer have a CERN computing account, please create a lightweight account.

What reward?

The volunteers will receive training tailored to their role, the satisfaction of being able to say “I was there!” exclusive Open Days 2013-branded clothing and packed lunches and drinks. Last but not least, through the visits service, once per week from October to December places will be exclusively reserved for all volunteers of the Open Days in LHC visits.

When and how to register?

The online sign-up is still open. Sign up now!
