A digital illustration shows a symbolic bridge made of Drupal logos and code snippets connecting two cliffs. On the left cliff labeled “Training,” several people stand observing. On the right cliff labeled “Professional Experience,” office buildings and development teams are depicted. Mentors walk alongside individuals crossing the bridge. The scene is bathed in sunrise light, with pyramid-shaped mountains in the background, all using a Drupal blue color palette.

IXP Graduates from Initiative to Program: Companies Can Start Using It Now!

The IXP Fellowship has officially evolved from an initiative to a functional program, creating structured pathways for companies to hire and mentor inexperienced Drupal developers. Companies completing engagements receive 250 contribution credits per hire, strengthening the Drupal ecosystem's sustainability. Seed EM, Bluefly, Digital Projex, and Digital Polygon are the first participating organizations. The program addresses the catch-22 of needing experience to get hired while broadening Drupal's talent base. Registration is now open at drupal-ixp.site.
