GitHub Account​

Required

If you don’t have one already, sign up for a free GitHub account.

Username / Profile Picture

As your GitHub account is part of your professional profile, choose your GitHub username carefully (ideally it should reflect your real name). If it doesn’t, we strongly suggest changing it.

Consider adding a professional profile picture.

(Using your personal GitHub account is OK. You’ll be contributing to open-source projects, and this becomes part of your professional profile — which should help when looking for a job after graduation.)


GitHub Global Campus​

Required for co-ops

GitHub provides students with several free services, many of which you will use during your co-op at Intealth.

note

Requires a valid student ID — takes a couple of days to process.


1Password​

Security is essential. The GitHub Student Developer Pack provides 1 year of free access to 1Password.
