Opera Campus Crew

October 2, 2008 · by Zara

Are you passionate about bringing Opera and Web standards to your campus? Starting today, you can sign up to be part of our Campus Crew program, and become part of the team of Opera reps at schools and universities around the world!

As a member of the Opera Campus Crew you can organise events with Opera and for Web enthusiasts on your campus, lobby your school or university to adopt Web standards, encourage computer labs to install Opera, speak to people about their attitudes toward browsers and the Web, demonstrate Opera, and work with campus media.

Joining the Campus Crew is an opportunity to earn freebies and win prizes, receive an endorsement on your CV from Opera Software, gain new skills, learn more about Opera and the Web (and help others do so, too!), and meet new people from all over your campus, country and the world.

Opera is different from other campus rep programs in that you don’t simply promote our products – you make the Web a better place by driving Web standards and accessibility, introducing mobile browsing to people who may not otherwise be able to access the Web, and providing forums to discuss key trends and issues in the Web.

After you register and are accepted to become a member of the Opera Campus Crew, you will be sent a ‘Get Started Guide’. This includes more information about the activities of Crew members, and how to go about doing them.

Opera Campus Crew is part of the larger Opera Education outreach program for universities, schools, and other education institutions. Check out the full program.
