### Frequently asked questions

###### What are Cloudflare Community Programs?

Cloudflare Community Programs support the people growing the Cloudflare builder ecosystem: Cloudflare Ambassadors and Cloudflare Community Engineers. Ambassadors bring builders together in their communities, while Community Engineers strengthen the open source projects the ecosystem relies on.

###### What is a Community Engineer?

Community Engineers are open source contributors who meaningfully support community projects in the Cloudflare ecosystem. They can receive grants, a Cloudflare Community Engineer designation, and recognition in Cloudflare community spaces.

###### Can Ambassadors support student communities?

Yes. Cloudflare Ambassadors can organize on campuses, in local community organizations, or city-wide. They might activate students through clubs, organize meetups and workshops, create technical content, or bring a broader local builder community together.

###### Do Ambassadors need to be technical?

The next generation of builders are both technical and non-technical. While we understand Cloudflare is a developer platform, we aim to make it approachable and accessible to anybody who has an idea they want to deploy into the world. Non-technical Cloudflare enthusiasts are welcome to apply.

###### Is there a fixed term?

Cloudflare Ambassador cohorts last one year, and Ambassadors can reapply for a second year. Community Engineers do not have a fixed term because open source work does not always fit into an annual cycle.

###### Do participants receive compensation?

Ambassadors are not paid roles. Benefits include event support, credits, swag, recognition, and access to Cloudflare teams. Community Engineers may receive grants for open source contributions.
