Pending AIS


23 February- Course De briefing call 

  • Registration data: 
  • Daniel Fink  will provide gender distribution registration data.
  • Albert Daniels  mentioned that connection with Academic engagement is key to promote participation. For example, students participating from Jamaica got student credit from their University.
  • Languages:  staff will look into offering this training and other training  courses in French.


  • Social media campaign led by Comms department:

Social media in several platforms is key. Facebook, twitter, Linkedln, NA Newsletter. There is a direct correlation between social media and registration.

  • Alexandra Dans will share Social media engagement statistics after ICANN 73.
  • Course Materials and contents feedback:

Naela recommended to Re-vamp materials - training in person for UA is recommended so students can get hands- on experience and make them more interactive.

Staff will look into Visuals, videos, interactive tools.

Live Polls used by instructors were good.


  • Course Tools: 

Need for Repository of supporting materials for  UA links- there were lots of links shared in the zoom chat, they are lost. Staff will look into one single repository.

Tool for collaboration and interaction with students: Staff will look into a different system not telegram- but perhaps  "slack" as way to communicate among students and with ICANN org staff.

Certificates- There was lack of clarity about certificates.

Glenn suggested Orientation package to be prepared to be shared previous to courses. 

Marketing - Course was marketed as NARALO, but more people from all over the world joined, so there is a need to identify Regional aspects vs. who else can join.
