UBC Launch Pad is committed to building a creative, inclusive, and collaborative tech community. This Code of Conduct outlines our expectations for all members and the standards for behaviour within our community.

Expectations

• Respect and Inclusivity: Treat all members with respect. Embrace diversity and strive for an inclusive environment.
• Collaboration and Engagement: Actively engage in collaborative projects and support your peers in their endeavours.
• Innovation and Excellence: Aspire to learn and grow within your teams.

Member Guidelines

• Active Participation: Regular participation in meetings, project work, and community events is expected.
• Communication: Maintain open and respectful communication. If unable to meet commitments, promptly inform your team.

Active participation is determined by your openness and communication with your team members and the club.

The club provides flexibility in various ways for members:

• You can return after a hiatus; e.g., you go on exchange or decide not to take on a project for certain years.
• You can take time off within an active project cycle, e.g., when you have unforeseen circumstances or need a break.
• The club deliberately scales back commitments close to finals and over the summer unless a member is keen on contributing.

Tech leads will now pass on notes on member participation, contribution and progress after each semester. These notes are private and will be used for future assignments. This added transparency helps members understand that their contributions have been noticed and are consequential.

Lastly, these notes will also be shared with sponsors that have access to our roster.

Due to the teamwork spirit of our projects, primarily require honesty and transparency with your lead and teammates. If you are an inactive member or very inconsistent, the club will revoke your membership. Check the policy enforcement section for more details.

Policy Enforcement

• Initial Warning: Members not adhering to these standards will receive a warning and guidance to improve.
