Descripción de la organización:

The Escola Sindical de Formación Melchor Botella (ESFMB) is the training school of the INTERSINDICAL VALENCIANA. It is a non-profit organisation, created in 2005.
It was born out of the need to provide formal and non-formal training to teachers, school managers, workers from all the Intersindical Valenciana and the different youth associations that are part of the different organizations or are nourished by it for its development in terms of activities and funding.
Our main objective has been and continues to be combining and promoting the values of solidarity, equality, social justice and equity with the commitments required by the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals.
Our organization forms a wide collaborative network with schools, teachers, management teams and youth associations throughout the Valencian Community, where specific training plans for these sectors are carried out. It aims to promote an inclusive spirit within all schools.
It is responsible for ensuring that training actions are of the highest quality, are linked to the improvement of working conditions and the service provided, have the highest possible administrative recognition and are accessible, ensuring that they are free of charge. We try to elaborate training plans that satisfy the demands and respond to the needs of both the members of the organization and the different participants from other organizations, children's organizations, youth organizations.
Our main goal is to alleviate the lack of training offer and the needs of different collectives, introducing new quality training contents, investigating a new model of continuous training that is public, efficient, competitive, participative and that allows young people and unemployed people to acquire the skills and competences that our current reality demands, such as digital competence. Using in all training processes an active and collaborative methodology that starts from a reflection on the reality of workplaces and creates a critical awareness that serves as a tool for social transformation. All this with the aim of creating new employment prospects, especially for young people, contributing directly and indirectly to economic dynamism.

The ESFMB works in three main areas:
-Training, information and job counselling for the members/affiliates of the entity, unemployed, youth associations and different education NGOs.
-Development of training plans and their adaptation to the different sectors.
-European Projects (Injuve, CES, KA1, KA2 y KA3).
