Update on APRALO Register of Skills & Interests Pilot Cycle 1 (17 Sep 2024)

The APRALO Register of Skills & Interests (RoSI) is intended to be a dynamic register to which APRALO Community members may wish to submit data on their skills, knowledge and interests specifically in areas within ICANN’s remit.
After a long pause in the project, a pilot implementation was devised (with input from the RoSI Small Team) and Cycle 1 of the pilot was launched and ran from 19 July - 13 September 2024.
Pilot Cycle 1 called for all interested APRALO Community members who wish to indicate they have expertise and/or knowledge to share on or are interested to learn about selected topic and themes within ICANN's remit in line with the ALAC's and APRALO's current priorities.
38 community members responded,submitting data on various skills/knowledge and interests.
These 38 respondents included:
Veterans community members;
Already actively engaged community members;
Less active community members who wish to re-engage; and
New community members.
Next Steps:
Study received data
Generate a tabulation to support the stated purpose of RoSI*
Identify/implement improvements/amendments to the Cycle 1 form
Prepare for Cycle 2 call.

*PURPOSE & USE OF SUBMITTED DATA
Data offered by respondents through the planned pilot implementation will not be published for public viewing. Instead such data will be processed and accessed exclusively by APRALO Leadership Team Members (and At-Large Staff) for the following purposes.

In terms of Skills, to assess a respondent’s experience, aptitude and suitability for:

An invitation to join an APRALO Work Team (or Small Team) or APRALO Policy Forum Small Team to undertake a specific task;
Nomination to represent APRALO or participate in ICANN events, cross-community working groups, policy development work, pen-holding for statements, leading initiatives or events, review teams etc
Generally being a resource person for APRALO.

In terms of Interests, to gauge a respondent’s interest to build one’s capacity in APRALO’s or At-Large identified priorities.
