Dear all,

 

the next ICANN meeting in Beijing is approaching soon and I would like to
agree with you on the agenda for the ICANN Academy WG session on:

 

Monday, 8 April 2013 

Time: 15:00-16:00
Meeting Room: Function 6

 

I hope this time is not conflicting with other commitments and we can have
just such a good session as in Toronto. 

 

For the agenda I propose:

1.	Review of the ICANN Academy Survey (Moderator: Sandra Hoferichter)
(10 mins)
2.	ICANN Online Education Platform and the role of the ICANN Academy WG
- Open Discussion with Matthew Shears (25 mins)
3.	Next Steps to be undertaken between Beijing, Durban and Buenos Aires
(Moderator: Sandra Hoferichter) (25 mins) 

Background information 1-3:

to point 1. 

So far we there was not much feedback on the results of the survey. I
enclose it again, encouraging you to send your analysis until Beijing. I
think it would be wise not to spend too much time on the survey analysis,
but just to summarise results in our session. The following comments on the
survey where posted so far:

Hong: ..Although it is diversified, Responses from at-large community are
almost a half and some stakeholder groups are still missing.

Tijani: regarding Q 12.. most people want it (the leader ship programme) to
be prior to the ICANN meeting.

Avri:

1. (2) I am surprised that so many are offering education to their members.

2. (5) Looking at those that got over 80%, I think we have a good basis for
planning a curriculum.

100 Understanding current issues under discussion in ICANN

90.5 Understanding ICANN and its processes     

85.7 Training or orientation needs for new members in your group 80
Understanding ICANN's role in the Internet governance eco system - I think
this pretty closely matches the curriculum those of us who have been on this
project for a very long first proposed.  I suggest that this is what we
should focus on.

3. (6,7)  It looks like we should be thinking of both Newbie and Leader
orientations

4. (10)  I am not sure what other time people would want.  

to point 2.

Recently ICANN engaged Matthew Shears to develop an online education
platform for ICANN. I had already the chance to talk to him and the aim is
very much inline with what our WG proposed in the past: pull together
existing things, add new content and provide different formats and
mechanisms to meet the different needs of ICANN Stakeholder groups.  Matthew
is already included in this mailing list and he is planning to join us in
Beijing, if his schedule allows. During the session he would then explain
his ideas in detail and we should figure out how the WG can support him.
This online platform will  be one module in the ICANN Academy framework.

to point 3.

Besides the development of the online platform we should look into
opportunities to start a pilot leadership programme for the next AGM. The
results from the survey clearly show that there is a demand for such a F2F
leadership programme (71,4%).  Not the majority, but 38,1%, agreed that the
3rd ICANN meeting in the year is the best time to schedule such a programme.
We should  take this as a fact for the time being and learn from this first
trail.

 

Thank you for reading this long email to the end and I am waiting for your
comments!

Best Sandra
