Code of Conduct

Is there a Code of Conduct? We firmly believe in the value and importance of an environment where all AWS community members feel welcome and safe. This Code of Conduct explains what type of behavior we expect from AWS community members interacting at live events, virtual events, and across AWS blogs, online forums, and social media. The purpose of our AWS events, both live and virtual, and community engagement across social media forums is to foster technical and professional education and encourage community discussion. The terms of this Code of Conduct are non-negotiable. We will not tolerate behavior that runs counter to this Code of Conduct. AWS Code of Conduct

Is anyone taking photos or recording videos? At the event there may be professional photographers and crew/attendees with camera’s/phones. The best photos will be published on our website (and can be downloaded and used by anyone). If you don’t like to be in pictures or videos, it’s best not to come to this event or avoid areas such as the stages, front row seats, and the expo. Wearing a face mask could also help if you’re in a queue for registration or food. In case you see somebody making a picture of you, kindly ask them to delete the photo. Just like what you would do if this happens in public areas.

Is this event for recruiters? Everyone who’s interested in AWS is welcome to learn. Please don’t actively approach anyone unless you’re a sponsor with a booth and the person is visiting your booth. Many recruiters left the event early as it didn’t meet their expectations. This is disappointing, as it prevented us from inviting others on the waitlist. Please take this into consideration when signin-up.

Practical

Czech or English? English. We encourge everyone at the event to speak English because not everyone speaks Czech and English is therefore more inclusive. It could happen a talk will be in Czech, if the organizers knew it upfront it’s added to the session description. Most speakers are aware many people in the audience don’t speak Czech, but at some events we have speakers who are not yet comfortable speaking English in front of a group.

Are there conference rooms available for calls? No, but the venue is quite spacious, so maybe there’s a silent spot. Or you can go to a restaurant, bar, or hotel nearby. We reserved a few couches for speakers to prep their talks. Tip: bring your headphones with NC.

Can I become a volunteer? For this event we have found enough support. If you want to help out during future events, reach out to Martin Damovsky on our Slack workspace once the new event is announced. Earlier is not necessary, because we cannot keep track of everyone.
