1
00:00:05,070 --> 00:00:12,480
In this lesson, we are going to talk about honor students and how you can become one of them.

2
00:00:15,090 --> 00:00:20,520
So honor students are our most distinguished students.

3
00:00:20,820 --> 00:00:24,960
They are the ones that contribute with code updates.

4
00:00:24,960 --> 00:00:32,340
Because when you are a working in this program, you are going to find that sometimes the code we have

5
00:00:32,340 --> 00:00:42,600
in our exercises has become outdated because we are in a so quickly changing space that these changes

6
00:00:42,600 --> 00:00:47,070
in in in in in in in in a matter of days, you know.

7
00:00:47,490 --> 00:00:50,190
So so excuse me.

8
00:00:50,190 --> 00:00:59,550
So for us, it's extremely valuable to find these kind of student that, uh, besides learning is contributing.

9
00:00:59,550 --> 00:01:08,850
And whenever she or he sees something that can be improved in the program, he or she makes the effort

10
00:01:08,850 --> 00:01:11,910
to contribute, uh, in that direction.

11
00:01:11,910 --> 00:01:18,600
So we have a lot of students that are contacting us on a daily basis saying, hey, you know what?

12
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:24,450
In this exercise, we can improve the code doing this, or we can update the code doing this.

13
00:01:24,450 --> 00:01:25,590
Or you know what?

14
00:01:25,590 --> 00:01:34,110
We can introduce this new feature that launching has launched or, or Llama index or OpenAI or whatever.

15
00:01:34,470 --> 00:01:39,690
So all these students for us are exceptionally valuable.

16
00:01:39,990 --> 00:01:46,080
Uh, they contribute with code updates, they contribute with suggestions to improve the program, and

17
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,870
they contribute in any other significant manner.

18
00:01:48,870 --> 00:01:50,880
So for us, these are diamonds.

19
00:01:50,880 --> 00:01:54,870
And these diamonds for us have a lot of values.

20
00:01:54,870 --> 00:01:58,140
And we really appreciate this value.

21
00:01:58,140 --> 00:02:00,780
And we really want to reward this value.

22
00:02:00,780 --> 00:02:04,560
So we have several ways to reward these honor students.

23
00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:07,350
We have an honor student certificate.

24
00:02:07,740 --> 00:02:15,780
We have an honor student level that they can include in their LinkedIn profile or CV or whatever.

25
00:02:15,780 --> 00:02:21,720
And they also have a lot of preference in the alumni network offers.

26
00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:29,160
So whenever we have a consulting gig offer, whenever we have a job offer, whenever we have a startup,

27
00:02:29,190 --> 00:02:36,780
a startup team information, the first people that, uh, is informed are the honor students.

28
00:02:36,780 --> 00:02:45,750
They have a preference in the alumni network because this is the way we we want to reward them in order

29
00:02:45,750 --> 00:02:49,110
to contribute to to make all the community better.

30
00:02:49,110 --> 00:02:52,080
They also have other special advantages.

31
00:02:52,080 --> 00:02:54,900
They are extremely valuable for the community.

32
00:02:54,900 --> 00:02:58,110
And we really appreciate honor students.

33
00:02:58,110 --> 00:03:02,790
The good thing is everybody can be an honor student.

34
00:03:02,790 --> 00:03:07,410
Everybody can become an honor student, and everybody is welcome to.

35
00:03:07,410 --> 00:03:13,950
So you are invited to become part of the alumni network just for being a student of this program.

36
00:03:13,950 --> 00:03:21,360
And with a little effort from your part, uh, if you see something that we can improve, if you see

37
00:03:21,360 --> 00:03:29,310
some code that can be updated just with a little help from your part, you are going to become part

38
00:03:29,310 --> 00:03:33,510
of the elite of our students, what we call honor students.

39
00:03:33,510 --> 00:03:41,580
So we really encourage you to enter in this selected in this, uh, elite group of our students, because

40
00:03:41,580 --> 00:03:45,870
you will really, uh, enjoy a lot of advantages.

41
00:03:45,870 --> 00:03:53,430
And, I mean, it's just a great satisfaction to, to be of, of help of the, of the community.

42
00:03:53,430 --> 00:04:01,200
And I have found, uh, during my job experience and, and social experience that all these people that

43
00:04:01,200 --> 00:04:09,930
contribute more in every environment in life are the ones that reach the higher positions always.

44
00:04:09,930 --> 00:04:18,959
So I really invite you to, to to walk that extra mile, as they say in United States, because I think

45
00:04:18,959 --> 00:04:23,040
it will be very good for you and very good for the community.

46
00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:27,720
So I will encourage you to become an honor student.

47
00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:37,740
In the next lesson, we are going to talk about how you can get tech and sales consulting gigs in the

48
00:04:37,740 --> 00:04:39,810
alumni network.
