Implementing an educational program for InnerSource
summary
90-minute remote sessions split into developer and product-owner tracks (InnerSource Dojo, InnerSource Academy) focus on two concrete exercises: converting a repo to be InnerSource-friendly and making a real contribution, plus a CLI generator, checklists and Gimkit quizzes. Run for four months: eight dojo sessions (60 people), six academy sessions (50 people, six countries), yielding four local ambassadors and two new InnerSource projects. Sweet spot is six people per session; offer a 30-minute exec version and use an open-feedback form and self-signup spreadsheet to scale.
