At ReDI, we follow the four values, which give an orientation on our behaviours and actions, both within the community and within ourselves as a team. Here what the ReDI values mean to us:
In the sense of impactful. We are a community moved by the wish to help others grow and are actively oriented towards this goal. Being helpful means trying to generate a real change in the life of others.
This is the most important value and has to do with experimenting in a fun and playful fashion. It refers to trying out new things and, if need be, making mistakes together and learning from them. It also means trying to build the "ideal learning environment" we all wanted to have in our own personal experiences.
Means trustful, in relation to the scope of our actions. We want to deliver the best quality of learning services to our learners because they are themselves relying on us for their education and deserve high-quality training from professionals like you.
We are "partners in crime" for our community to do things they didn’t even think they’d be capable of doing at the beginning. It means empowering others to understand they can cross their own limits, far beyond what they might have originally thought. Change is reflected the students also by the teachers because, through their flexibility and willingness to change, they are leading students to achieve their goals.
ReDI School aims to be a safe learning environment for all of its community members. The ReDI Code of Conduct sets the standards that allow us to keep our community safe and healthy, both online and offline. It establishes standards necessary to maintain and protect an environment conducive to learning and in keeping with the objectives of the program. The code of conduct is important to:
maintain and protect an environment conducive to learning and in keeping with the objectives of our ReDI School programs
protect our community and ensure that EVERYONE feels safe and comfortable in the online environment
By signing the Volunteer Agreement at the beginning of their teaching experience, volunteers agree to respect the ReDI Code of Conduct during their volunteer experience and interactions with students, other volunteers, as well as with the ReDI team and community.

We understand that sometimes, due to personal or professional circumstances, a teacher may make the decision to leave the class. We want to express our respect for their choice and appreciate the time and effort they have dedicated so far. We are here to support in the transition and ensure that the process is as smooth as possible for everyone involved.

Finally, fill out this questionnaire
This semester, instead of having separate Student and Volunteer Managers following up on students or teachers across different courses, we have Course Managers, each overseeing three to four courses on both volunteers and learners side.
Course Managers will actively monitor course health and suggest improvements to the program management and tech lead based on the information they collect, in order to enhance the learning and volunteering experience for each course. If you have any questions or feedback, or need support, your Course Manager will be your main point of contact.
Safety Officers play a crucial role in protecting the community and ensuring that everyone feels safe, respected, and comfortable in the online environment. If you experience any situations where you feel like our community guidelines or code of conduct have been breached, or you feel uncomfortable for any reason, ask for support from the ReDI Team safety officers!
What they can do for you or our students:
Just listen if anything at ReDI is making you uncomfortable
Address complaints
Offer conflict coaching
Who to contact:
Pierluigi Delgiudice - Local Head DCP Online
Tamara Fantinato - Program Manger
First of all, no worries! Let's ask the team for a substitute.
