Schedule

Application​

Applications to the Confidential Computing Fellowship are open on a rolling basis. For some initiatives like Outreachy and Google Summer of Code (GSoC), there are well defined deadlines (please check accordingly). We use LFX Mentorship as the platform to manage these applications.

Contribution​

The best way to get accepted into the Confidential Computing Fellowship is to start contributing to the project. A Contributing Guide to the Enarx project is available here. Fellowship opportunities will be awarded to individuals making significant contributions.

Fellowship/Internship​

During the fellowship/internship, each fellow will be paired with one or more mentor(s) who'll work together to define a schedule, depending on the profile (developer, advocate, researcher) and the initiative (Outreachy, Google Summer of Code, etc).

A sample schedule for a 12-week program could be:

  • Week 1: Learn about Confidential Computing and the Enarx project;
  • Week 2: Learn Rust;
  • Week 3: Learn WebAssembly;
  • Week 4: Install and run Enarx;
  • Week 5: Brainstorm demo ideas;
  • Week 6: Develop demos;
  • Week 7: Develop demos;
  • Week 8: Develop demos;
  • Week 9: Build and publish tutorials;
  • Week 10: Build and publish tutorials;
  • Week 11: Present demo;
  • Week 12: Write final report;

Graduation​

Fellows who successfully complete the fellowship program will graduate and receive a Confidential Computing Fellowship certification. Further opportunities will be explored and presented to the fellow based on his/her interests.

Mentorship​

Each fellow who has graduated will be invited to become a mentor of the Confidential Computing Fellowship, helping other individuals like him/her to learn more about Confidential Computing, thus creating a virtuous cycle.
