Welcome to The Turing Way!
We’re so glad to have you here! On this page, you can learn more about our Onboarding Calls.
About the Onboarding Call¶
Historically, onboarding in The Turing Way community has happened through 1:1 connections, between the Community Manager or Community Leaders and prospective community members of the project. As the project has grown, so have the number of entry points: where folks may be interacting with different parts of project and community in .
Starting in 2024, these calls are hosted every two months, where community leaders meet new members and create a space for them to connect with our community and available resources, ensuring they have the support they need to navigate and kickstart their journey with The Turing Way. These calls create an open space for questions, discussions, and a warm welcome into our community.
During this hour-long call, participants learn about The Turing Way project in a group setting and how to contribute to different sub-projects and working groups within the community, and may gain hands-on experience in contributing to The Turing Way guides (in some cases, even making their first pull request!).
This is a space to bring your questions and interests – we’re so excited to meet you!
Agenda¶
As of January 2024, onboarding calls are being trialed using the following format:
- Introduction, icebreaker
- The Turing Way - What is it?
- How to get involved with The Turing Way?
- Do you have any questions for us?
- Feedback
Want to onboard other community members?¶
Please join the #onboarding channel on The Turing Way slack!
We would love to have more community members join in welcoming others to the community.
