SUN™ Campus Ambassador Program - Open Positions in Italy
August 16, 2008 - 11:40 pm - by Santo LetoI’d like to inform members of the MySQL™ Community about an amazing Program @ Sun™ Developer Network: the Campus Ambassador Program.
Quote:
Sun has more than 500 campus ambassadors worldwide who help spread knowledge and awareness of leading-edge technologies such as Java™, NetBeans™ IDE, OpenSolaris™, and many more.
Now that MySQL™ is part of SUN™ I guess that you can be ambassador of MySQL™ too, among the other SUN™’s products.
Quote:
Campus ambassadors are Sun™ Microsystems interns who build a Sun™ community on their school or university campus. They learn all about the latest Sun™ open-source technologies and share that knowledge with fellow students. This includes activities such as starting a Sun™ user group on campus, demonstrating Sun™ technology to fellow students, promoting Sun™ events and contests, and blogging.
Quote:
Campus ambassadors work a few hours each week and bring cutting-edge technology to fellow students, professors, and researchers — and they get top pay to do it.
Positions available for Italian Students:
