titleHow to Complete an Expression of Interest (EoI) Form
Info

If you have received an email from the Program Admin Staff providing you access to an Expression of Interest (EoI) Form contained in this Wiki, please follow the instructions below to complete your EoI Form.

Warning
titlePlease Start Early!

Please start your EoI Form early to ensure your timely completion. See a blank sample EoI Form to understand the details. All forms will be closed to further editing effective 23:59 UTC on Friday, 18 November 2016

Instructions: 

Step 1: A blank EoI Form has been created and is titled according to the unique randomly generated 5-character Candidate Name (or Code) (e.g., C1234) sent you by Program Admin Staff via a separate Email. It should be the only page visible under the Expression of Interest (EoI) Forms - 2017 (see left navigation menu). Click that page link and proceed to Step 2. 

  • You must login to this Wiki to access your EoI Form. If you are unsure about your UserID and Password, please send an Email to program-admin@atlarge.icann.org requesting that information.
  • Your individual EoI Form has been RESTRICTED so that it can be edited only by you and viewed by the BCEC Members and authorized Program Admin Staff in ICANN. No one else will be able to view or access the contents of your EoI Form.

  • IMPORTANT: DO NOT change that page title for any reason.


Step 2
: Once you have opened your specific EoI Form in Step 1, click <Edit Contents> on the top of menu bar, then answer each of the questions in the blank column to the far right.  

  • Certain fields accept plain text and you may enter the data directly into the cell. Note that the field will auto-expand and auto-wrap as you type text.
  • Other fields permit rich-text and, when you click in the cell, a window will open which will offer additional editing features (see top menu) such as bold, italics, bullets, and more.
  • Note that some fields contain menu selections which will pop-up once you click anywhere in the cell. 
  • The EoI Form contains Profile Sections (A-C) and a separate Application Section (D). EoIs will not be considered unless ALL applicable information has been provided.

  • Be concise while still being comprehensive in completing the EoI. There are no enforced limits on content length; however, extensive, redundant, or superfluous descriptions are not favorably perceived.

  • IMPORTANT: This form must be completed in English.


Step 3
You are able to edit and save your progress until the final submission. Remember to <Save> all changes before exiting your session (saving does not occur automatically). The <Save> button is located at the bottom right of your EoI Form.

  •  IMPORTANT: We recommend that you NOT click the <Save Draft> button because its operation is not intuitive, you may lose your work.

Step 4: Once you select "Yes - Agree and Submit", complete the date field in the “Consent and Authorization” area at the bottom, and click the <Save> button at the bottom right bottom of the Form, you signify . This signifies to the Program Admin Staff that this is your final submission. As soon as realistically possible, Program Admin Staff will validate the final submission for completeness and subsequently restrict your EoI Form from further editing. 

  • IMPORTANT: The BCEC will make publicly available a list of the names of all Applicants, who have completed and submitted their EoI Forms by the deadline.

Tip

How to Find Your EoI Form Links: Both standard and tiny links (URL) are available to your EoI Form in this Wiki. The tiny link is useful because it will always point to the correct location (permalink) even if the page is subsequently moved within the Wiki. To access the links, simply press the keyboard shortcut letter "k" to show both standard and tiny URLs, either of which may be copied and pasted.

How to Edit Later: After saving the content you entered on your EoI Form, you may return at any time to amend the content. Simply click on your individual page and then click <Edit Contents> on the top menu bar and continue completing the form. Don’t forget to <Save> any changes you make.
