Dear TSC Members, Please see the message below from Min Yu regarding the LFN 2020 mentorship program. If you are interested in an intern project this year, please look at the info below. Note that the submission deadline is Feb. 28.
Thanks! -kenny From: Min Yu <[email protected]> Today, we’re excited to open the call for mentors and project proposals for the 2020 <https://wiki.lfnetworking.org/display/LN/LFN+Mentorship+Program> LF Networking Mentorship Program. This is the first year we're bringing all community intern/mentor projects under the LF Networking umbrella to launch with an integrated program schedule and program operations/management. The Program is intended to provide a formal structure to connect mentors and student developers from around the globe to contribute their enthusiasm, time, and experience toward building sustainable LFN communities. Why should you consider mentoring for LF Networking Mentorship Program? * You believe in the value of mentorship in helping new developers to navigate open source development, the culture, the tooling and infrastructure to be a productive member of the community. * You are passionate about teaching and guiding student developers, many of whom may be first time open-source contributors, * You are eager to bring in new perspectives, new ideas, and new talent into your community and projects. * You have a narrowly scoped mentorship project with clear learning objectives/outcomes and a mentee's work and potential contributions could add value to the project or community of which you're an active developer or maintainer. I am interested in mentoring but how do I get started? * Please <https://wiki.lfnetworking.org/display/LN/Mentorship+Projects> submit a project proposal for consideration by the TSC no later than Friday, February 28th. * Please reference <https://wiki.lfnetworking.org/display/LN/LFN+Mentorship+Program#LFNMentorshipProgram-2020ProgramSchedule*> 2020 program schedule as you plan out your project and commitment. * Please review the <https://wiki.lfnetworking.org/display/LN/Project+Proposal> project proposal guidelines before your submit your proposal What are the elements the LFN Mentorship Program will implement to maximize mentor/mentee collaboration success? * Mentor and mentee onboarding will be conducted at the start of the Program * Mentor and mentee guide will be available as part of the Linux Foundation CommunityBridge Mentorship initiative * Project planning that includes deliverables, milestones, and tasks will be completed collaboratively between the mentors and mentees during the first two weeks of the program and posted on the wiki to increase transparency and accountability. * Mentee presentations will be required to sharpen both presentation skills and to cultivate the ability to provide constructive feedback and critique that’s the norm in the open source community for developing technologies collaboratively and openly. * Mentee evaluation will be conducted on a regular cadence tied to milestone deliverable schedules to help mentors and LFN staff formalize and respond to progress. While mentors will be on a voluntary basis, the hired mentees will be eligible to receive a stipend. As an added bonus, each mentee who successfully completes the Program will be invited and financially sponsored by LF Networking to attend an event/conference and present their work to the broader community (specific event TBD but will be during Q3 or Q4 of this year or Q1 of the following year). If you have any questions, please contact [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> We look forward to your submission of a mentorship project and thank you in advance for volunteering your time to contribute to the training of the new talent pool in the LF Networking communities.
