This was also a pivotal moment in my career, so much good stuff traces back to this five minute demo.

  #Stop scanning and probing our network, 153.11.0.0/16.  We are a defense 
  #contractor and report to Federal law enforcement authorities when scans 
  #and probes are directed at our network.  I assume you don't want to be 
  #part of that report.   Please permanently  remove our network range from

I'm hiring a Software Developer Apprentice, full-time and paid.

There will be an emphasis on learning and quality, not speed of development. You'll work on: frontend and backend web applications, mobile applications, desktop applications, and APIs.

=============================

Software Developer Apprentice

This is an excellent opportunity for an aspiring software developer who is eager to learn by doing.

Details:

The position is full-time and paid. Day to day work will be remote, but candidates may prefer to relocate to New York City temporarily for in person mentorship and learning opportunities.

In this position you will be tasked with a variety of software development projects spanning the entire stack using the following technologies:

* Web frontend: React

* Web backend: Ruby on Rails

* Mobile: iOS with Swift

* Desktop: Cross platform with Electron

* Platform: REST and GraphQL APIs

You will work on real projects and receive mentorship on software development and industry best practices. There will be a strong emphasis on producing quality work and becoming a great developer and less of an emphasis on speed of development.

This is not a typical job at a company. It's a paid full time apprenticeship opportunity working with John Britton in an individual capacity.

Qualifications:

This is an apprenticeship: zero professional experience is required. Candidates must, however, have demonstrated determination and an unwavering desire to learn. Acceptable evidence may include: completed coursework, self study records, side projects, and personal recommendations.

I'm John, and I work at GitHub. Sorry to hear you're having difficulty.

From your post:

> I haven’t tried contacting customer support, but as this appears to be official policy I would not expect a change there.

I'd recommend you reach out to support@github.com, they're usually very helpful with things like this.

You no longer need to collect usernames, just distribute an invitation URL and have your students include their student number or name in the repository description or README.md.

Forking is intended as a collaboration tool, so it makes sense that every member of the network can see all forks in the network. In a classroom setting, however, this might not make sense. Classroom for GitHub doesn't utilize forking, instead it creates independent repositories and pushes the starter code without using forks.

2. GitHub Enterprise is not supported, but others have requested this feature: https://github.com/education/classroom/issues/240

3. I'm having a hard time understanding your situation, but would appreciate it if you could file an issue at https://github.com/education/classroom/issues/new, can't promise that it will be fixed immediately, but need to gather feedback like this.
