[Resources Track] Applications are now open

Hello amazing Reps!

We are very excited to announce the opening of the Resources Reps training! The application will stay open until Wednesday the 30th 13:00 UTC and will be reviewed by the Review Team. You can apply here.

What are the Resources Reps?
Resources Reps are a group of Reps who specialize in resources and are trained to help communities and Reps plan strategically how they use these. This ensures that resources (budget and others) of the program are used in the most impactful way and according to the guidance provided by Mozilla’s strategy and the Council. You can read more about the Resources Track here

Who can apply?
In order to apply, you need:

  • to join a special training (planning for impact, how to run activities, etc)
  • to organize at least one impactful zero-budget initiative
  • to have all of your previous Bugzilla bugs closed

What is the Resources Training?
If you get accepted, you need to commit for a 3 weeks training starting September the 2nd. We are asking you to commit about 3 hours per week (depending on your personal learning timing). In these 3 hours you will be asked to read the training material, pass the quick quiz and participate in a 1 hour meeting.

Have any questions? Let us know on the comments section.

The grouping above are based on the region to make sure that the resources we have are distributed correctly. And as you can see, we’re lacking people from some regions (especially Europe, Middle East, North America, and South East Asia). There’s a chance we will open the application process again in the future. So keep an eye for more update.

Congratulations for those who are accepted and please check your inbox for more information.

Hey awesome Reps!

The application will stay open until Wednesday the 20th 23:00 UTC and will be reviewed by the Review Team. If you’re from one of those regions, we highly encourage you to apply here.

Thank you for pointing me to this direction. If the applications will be open during November or later too, I am in. Unfortunately I will be unavailable the whole time between Sep 22 and Oct 9, and the preparation for the OpenAlt conference will probably take me the second half of October.

That’t too bad, but we can totally understand. I’ll let you know if we open the application anymore in the future.
