Circuit Streams Student Ambassador Program
Dejan Gajsek
With the rising community of XR and real-time 3D developers and designers, Circuit Stream is opening up a Student Ambassador Program. We believe that our students and active members of the community are the best representation of who we are and what we stand for, which is why we want to give them a chance to shine.
The program has been launched and we have selected two Circuit Stream alumni to support our learners through community engagement, mentorship, and academic support. The ambassadors run for a six-month commitment, so if you are interested in the position, don't hesitate to apply.
What is a Student Ambassador Program
Circuit Stream’s Student Ambassador Program is a paid part-time position which works alongside the community management team, supporting the production and realization of special projects to assist new learners in any of our courses:
- XR Development with Unity
- Interaction Design and Prototyping for XR
- Unity Developer Bootcamp

And any future course offering, for that matter.
