[ICANN Academy WG] Pilot leadership training programme - UPDATE

[sandra hoferichter]

Dear all,

 

sorry for the silence, but I was captured in meetings and travelling these
days.

 

Let me summarise the current status:

 

We received no objections regarding the draft curriculum and the trainer
criteria's, so I consider this as agreed. Regarding the distribution of
seats there was a demand to assign more seats for the GAC and for the GNSO. 

 

Taking into account that we have a limit of 25 participants plus 4 trainer
(for PART 2) we have flexibility to provide sufficient seats only if some
participants act as trainers as well. 

 

Thinking about it, I quite like the idea, because:

.         It is then a real effort from the community to the community 

.         It is an organised knowledge transfer, where newcomers can benefit
from the experience participants and the "old hands" can get some new input
by the newcomers.

.         peer to peer mentoring can be organised between the experienced
participants and the newcomers (staff might be also helpful in this case)

.         In order to keep the balance and have all voices heard, I would
like to see at least one experienced senior staff in this group

 

In this respect I would not use the term trainer any more, rather "session
facilitators" . Of course the criteria's for those facilitating a lecture
should apply in order to keep the quality high.

 

 

How to move forward:

 

NomCom selectees and AC/SO chairs have been informed to select participants.
We will soon have a clear picture who confirmed and who would be able to
facilitate a session (according to the criteria's and availability). I do
not expect that all seats will be taken in the first place, so I see a bit
of a flexibility here before we close the final list of participants. We
should then ensure to get the right balance between experienced and
newcomers, geographical diversity, gender balance. I will keep you updated
of the process.

 

The current  distribution of seats is as follows:
