How do Camunda Champions get selected?
The Camunda Champion Program team selects the top contributors and welcomes them into the program. If you get accepted, you will be notified via email.
How long does the Champions Program run?
Champions receive the title for one year, during which they can enjoy the benefits that are associated with the program. Existing Champions are eligible to renew their status for the following year, as long as they can demonstrate that they have made significant contributions to the community over the past 12 months. Being named Camunda Champion one year does not automatically guarantee that someone will remain in the program the following years. We reserve the right to remove a Champion before the 12-month term ends, e.g. when a person violates our Code of Conduct.
How do I know if I got accepted?
