This article explains how to fulfill the two-project requirement needed to apply for the Linden Lab Solution Provider Program. All Solution Provider Program members are required to have completed at least two projects.

KBnote.png Note: A project is defined as a product or service provided to a client (paid or unpaid), and can also depend on whether you're listed as full-service or specialist.

Please see the Solution Provider Program page for more details. If you don't meet the two-project requirement, the following are some guidelines intended to help you obtain the experience needed to meet them:

  • Create: Start designing clothes, constructing buildings, managing events, developing tools, or completing projects in whatever other areas you're interested.
  • Organize: Develop a portfolio that best represents your work.
  • Advertise: List the products and/or services you provide on the inworld classifieds. See the Classifieds FAQ for more information on how to post an ad.
  • Search: There are two things you can try:
    • Check out the inworld classifieds for Residents seeking someone to help with a project that fits your skillset.
    • Search the Solution Provider Directory for companies and individuals with projects or a business focus that interests you, and which you believe would benefit from your skills, and contact them.
  • Collaborate: Work with fellow Residents and solution providers on projects. Before you know it, you'll have two client projects to your name!
  • Apply: Once you've completed two projects for clients, you can submit your application for inclusion in the solution provider program.
