The students joining us in Krak\u00f3w are part of<a href=\"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/education\/credits\/\"> WordPress Credits<\/a>, a program that integrates WordPress into university curricula and recognises students for contributing to real-world projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This year, five WordPress Credits students will attend WordCamp Europe fully sponsored: travel, accommodation, and the complete three-day experience: sessions, workshops, Contributor Day, and the hallway conversations that tend to matter just as much. Each sponsorship package is \u20ac1,000, processed through WordPress Community Support (WPCS).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This first edition was made possible by companies and individuals who wanted to do more than attend, they wanted to open the door for the next generation of contributors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sponsors who supported this initiative are recognized as<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.org\"> WordPress.org<\/a> Education Student Sponsors on the<a href=\"https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2026\/community\/sponsors\/\"> WCEU 2026 sponsors page<\/a>, at a dedicated venue banner, and in a follow-up impact report.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Thank you to our<a href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.org\"> WordPress.org<\/a> Education Student Sponsors:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul style=\"padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--10);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--10)\" class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2026\/sponsor\/automattic\/\">Automattic<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2026\/sponsor\/elementor\/\">Elementor<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2026\/sponsor\/hostinger\/\">Hostinger<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/europe.wordcamp.org\/2026\/sponsor\/wpbakery\/\">WPBakery<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We hope this is the first of many years.
