When you have become a db4o professional, you can give back to the db4o community and thus enhance your career.
Contributing to db4o is easy and broad. You don't need to be an expert to get started. Please refer to the db4o Contribution Guide to find out what and how you can contribute to the growth of db4o.
The db4o Most Valued Professional (dVP) program is designed to increase your visibility as a db4o professional and to recognize your contributions to the community.
You should also check our Community programs designed to sponsor activities around db4o (such as code development and bug fixing activities). You can now participate in the CodeCommander program which rewards db4o community members that contribute and maintain specially selected db4o related projects.
dVPs are often the first pick for db4objects' customers and db4objects itself, when it comes to hiring professionals. The Job Forum has a listing of some of the job opportunities which are open to members of the db4o developer community.
