[ICANN Academy WG] Draft outline for a Pilot Leadership Training Programme in Toronto

[Gomes, Chuck]

Now that I understand who the participants are projected to be, I reviewed the draft curriculum outline and inserted my personal comments regarding its relevance and value to those participants; my comments are highlighted in the attached copy of the agenda.

As you can see by my notes in the attachment:

*        I don't think the first day's curriculum would have much value to most of the projected participants except possibly to any of the 7 NomCom appointees who may be less experienced with ICANN.  To extent that they need coverage of the first day's topics, that could be handled separately and hopefully with reduced costs.

*        In my personal opinion, the morning of the second day isn't any different.

*        But I think the afternoon agenda could be made to have value to all.

If my assessment is close to being accurate, we should be able to do this in one day and still have some time for what Marilyn suggested in terms of capacity building.

Subject: [ICANN Academy WG] Draft outline for a Pilot Leadership Training Programme in Toronto

Dear WG members,

after a summer break Filiz and I started working on a draft outline for the pilot project in Toronto. Based on the FY13 Operating Plan and Budget and the results of this working group so far, we present you herewith a draft programme inviting you to comment.

While drafting this outline we already discussed various options, how to optimise it and what should be the focus. We expect that some of these options will be raised in this mailing list and we are happy to answer any questions and remain open for ideas, as long as they fit in the given framework.


In the FY13 Operating Plan and Budget document it is stated:



<<<"The ICANN-Academy concept is still being developed and reviewed within the SO-AC groups and further consensus is ongoing though a process led by ALAC / At-Large. While this process is ongoing, in early anticipation of the direction of the effort, a staff pilot project will be focused on the executive training of new SO-AC leaders on ICANN organisations, policymaking and related activities. The pilot would include usage of online tools where possible and an orientation session in Toronto. This pilot project should be seen as a first step in testing the overall concept and providing a basis for a future training program as well as experience to build on for future improvements if deemed necessary. ">>>



Furthermore this draft concept is based on the proposed curriculum. (see: https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/31168402/Draft+Initial+Proposal+%28as+of+18.02.2012%29.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1329954389000 ).



The comment phase is open until: 31 August 2012

Nominations for participants should be sent to filiz.yilmaz at icann.org<mailto:filiz.yilmaz at icann.org> until 1 September 2012



We are aware, that the discussion in the expanded WG is just about to start and this outline will not cover all the needs and ideas, however this pilot project should be see as a first step to build on an inclusive capacity building programme within ICANN. The WG is should review the pilot project critically and develop strategies and recommendations for future projects. To get a feedback from the participants this WG is asked to develop a survey, to be filled in by every participant in this programme.



We are looking forward to your comments.



Sandra and Filiz
