Volunteering Positions
Unique volunteering opportunities directly with World Robot Olympiad Association
In more than 100 countries, WRO competitions are made possible through the dedication of organizations, sponsors, partners, and thousands of volunteers.
These committed individuals serve as coaches, judges, and event helpers, enabling students to explore robotics and innovation on a global stage. Our international events, including Open Championships and the annual International Final, could not happen without the time and effort of volunteers who contribute both during the events and in the crucial preparation phases.
We are excited to offer unique volunteering opportunities directly with World Robot Olympiad Association. As a global non-profit organization, we are happy to offer the chance to contribute to our worldwide robotics competition on a volunteering basis.

Volunteering is a truly rewarding experience, though it is important to note that these positions are unpaid. In some cases, we may be able to provide compensation for travel or other expenses related to your role. Most of our volunteering opportunities are remote and designed to fit within a defined time frame, making it easier to balance your contribution with other commitments.
On this page, we provide a clear overview of the current volunteering opportunities available. We have described each position transparently and in detail, so you can assess how your skills and availability align with our needs. However, if you believe you can contribute to part of a role or offer support in a different way, please do not hesitate to reach out. Volunteering is flexible – it is all about how your unique skills and time can make a difference!
If you are interested in one of our positions, please contact us at info(at)wro-association.org. No formal application is required—just let us know what position you are interested in, why you are a great fit for the role and when you would be available to start.
Together, let us inspire the next generation of innovators and STEM talents worldwide!

Volunteers for WRO LEARN
We are working on WRO Learn, an exciting online learning platform, connected to our WRO competitions. In 2025, our countries will get access to a platform that holds content for students, teachers and judges in support of the local competitions.

Volunteers for our international competitions
In 2025, WRO will have more international events than ever before. In addition to the International Final there will be four Open Championships in different world regions.
For the International Final we have a set up where volunteers help coordinate the tournament and are active for multiple years, this ensures consistency. For the Open Championships we are aiming to have a set up where a group of volunteers from the judging community acts as tournament head judges for the events, so we can maintain the same consistency.
