'''Mozilla Tech Speakers is a program to bring together volunteer contributors who are already speaking to technical audiences (developers/web designers/computer science and engineering students) about Firefox, Mozilla and the Open Web in communities around the world.''' We want to support you and amplify your work!
As Mozilla Tech Speakers, participants had an opportunity to work on public speaking skill development with a cohort of technical contributors from many countries. Mozillians old and new, and our allies across the open web, at all levels of experience in public speaking and at different stages in their careers, are welcome to apply. Most participants are not native English speakers, but at this time you must be willing and able to communicate in English to participate in this program.

===How It Works===
Tech Speakers is a six-week program supported by the Developer Relations team, part of the Emerging Technologies group. Originally, our program was by invitation only. Now we are growing the program through an application process.
Our vidyo meetings focus on group speaking practice and sharing constructive feedback. Active Tech Speakers who've completed the Tech Speakers program are expected to deliver 2 talks or workshops per quarter, in order to maintain their active status.
During the onboarding phase, each participant:
* Picks a topic at the beginning of the program
* Develops a talk or workshop or training on that topic over the course of the program.
* Submits their talk to a conference CFP, presents at a meetup or other relevant gathering.
Applications are currently closed. We will announce any new cohorts on Discourse.
Once onboard, Mozilla Tech Speakers:
* Regularly submit talks, workshops, or training session.
* Get help and advice from the program members and staff.
