Yes! The Selenium & Appium projects and the SeleniumConf & AppiumConf organizers want everyone to attend the conference. Still, we know that not everyone’s personal or financial circumstances make this possible. So, as part of our scholarship program, we’re setting aside a minimum of four free tickets and covering travel and lodging expenses for selected applicants.
Initially inspired by RubyConf, we also offer to pair our scholars with a guide if they’d like one. A guide is an experienced community member who will be a friendly face at the conference, helping you get the most out of your conference experience and introducing you to others at the event.
The program aims to support individuals from underrepresented groups in tech and those facing economic or social hardship to have access to brilliant content and networking opportunities. If you’re an aspiring software professional looking to use a browser or mobile automation tool or a current one without access to the funds to buy your ticket, you should apply. We will award tickets to people who can show that the knowledge gained will be helpful in their ongoing careers.
Scholarship applications will be accepted between now and December 15, 2024. Apply here.
