Dear Colleagues: I also have some questions. The mentor's and mentee's are selected for how many meetings. Is one meeting enough to engage a newcomer? It would be great to be able to have some criteria to follow-up his/her performance as resources are developed, used with newcomers and involvement in ICANN activities. This could even be as a mentor in the Fellowship or NextGen programs.

The blog day there is the possibility of 2 mentees and one mentor but that extra person has not been funded. Perhaps staff can address this issue, Also it does not state how long they will serve. One meeting, 3 meetings. I did not see a date and think this should be clarified.

Thanks Beran.

So that's going to be two people being selected for the Onboarding Program thus 1 mentor & 1 mentee. I am copying the RALO Secretariats & the Outreach & Engagement working group as we need to discuss what our selection process is going to be for this. Of course, 1 or 2 mentors and 5 mentees, one for region, would be a lot better for us; however budgets are not high enough to sustain this. Kindest regards,

Dear all, I said when the CROP fund was used first for people to go to ICANN meetings, that this is a mistake. This program (CROP) was designed to make outreach for new people. Now that it’s proposed that CROP is used for the COP menses, I say nooo. No for the following reasons: Doing so will minimize the opportunity for outreach which is the sole objective of this program The Onboarding program would be with no interest if it is for only one meeting. Remember how many meetings took the first pilot program (From Marrakech to Abu Dhabi = 4-5 meetings) We will end up with the ICANN org cancel the CROP program because we are using it for what wasn’t intended to be the objective. As for the selection of the Mentors / Mentees, we are supposed now to do it through the community. Since we are supposed to be a bottom-up decision making community, let’s take proposals from the RALOs. The final selection from the pool the RALOs proposed should be done by the selection committee (we have created a committee, let’s use it). ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tijani BEN JEMAA Executive Director Mediterranean Federation of Internet Associations (FMAI) Phone: +216 98 330 114 +216 52 385 114 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

SO: Not an option since slots can't go round per RALO.

Outreach & Engagement WG Chairs?

SO: Can be an option but their work has been reviewing regional applications hence this may be new for them and may not necessarily be inline with their existing administrative processes. However they may make contribution to the requirements.

ALAC?

SO: Can be the final endorsement point but not to review.

ALAC Leadership Team?

SO: Probably but will not recommend based on the next option.

ALAC Selection Committee?

SO: I think this group are used to reviewing and selecting such non-RALO centric positions and may be in a better place to perform this task.

Overall my suggestion is to push this to the ASC.

Olivier

Recognising it was an excellent idea I shared this with the ALT yesterday and this idea has received support. Today I had a call with Beran Dondeh Gillen, one of this past year's Mentees. She, along with Isaac Maposa, were mentored by Dev Anand Teelucksingh and put together a proposal for a follow-up to the mentoring program. This proposal was that in the next cycle, five people from At-Large should be mentored, one from each RALO. With the news that only 1 mentee & 1 mentor would be funded, specifically in the lead up to the next ICANN meeting, with 1 other mentee that  would need to be funded by other means, the concept of having 5 mentees sounded as though not possible. Heidi asked Ergys Ramaj about having 5 mentees funded, one for each region. That was categorically refused as there isn't the funding to do this, this year. So Beran suggested a version of the proposed plan: - 5 mentees, to be proposed by each RALO, but actually selected, one per region, by the ALAC Selection Committee. - 1 mentor selected from a slate of applicants, by the ALAC Selection Committee The mentor starts mentoring all 5 mentees through a set of calls throughout the year, with the 5 mentees. The mentor travels to each of the ICANN meetings in the year. With 3 ICANN meetings in a year, 2 mentees go to March meeting. 2 mentees go to June meeting. 1 mentee goes to AGM in November. Thus, all 5 mentees have had a chance to attend one funded ICANN meeting. This means there is actually a shortfall of only 2 travel slots, one at the March meeting and one at the June meeting. As the focus for mentoring is about policy, one slot for each of these two meetings could be a discretionary slot current available for a policy person to take part in the meeting. This is just a simple proposal - Feedback/Comments welcome as soon as possible! We need to have finalised a process by the end of this week. Kindest regards, Olivier

This proposal sounds good to me. Just some clarification. I’m not sure if I’m mixing up numbers.  The mentor travels to all the meetings but we have 2 mentees for the March and June meetings. That makes it 3 travellers per meeting, yet there is funding for 2. Is the discretionary slot easy to justify?

We are short of 1 slot in two meetings: the one in March and the one in June. The ALAC has some discretionary slots for policy people. The ALAC could decide to allocate one of these slots per meeting to a mentee focussing on policy.

This is just a simple proposal - Feedback/Comments welcome as soon as possible! We need to have finalised a process by the end of this week.

Has it been agreed that mentees are chosen at RALO level? Otherwise, I am happy with this proposal as well.

I'll let the ALAC Chair summarise what's agreed. I think we have not formally agreed anything yet, but need to focus on agreeing quickly.

Another question unrelated to travel slots. Is the mentor: mentee ratio (1:5) good? Are 5 mentees not many for one mentor? 

There is no funding for more people at present. The alternative is to have 1 mentor and 2 mentees per meeting, so they might be the same or change at each meeting - but with 5 RALOs that really is limiting - and some RALOs might therefore not benefit from this program. Kindest regards, Olivier

Heidi asked Ergys Ramaj about having 5 mentees funded, one for each region. That was categorically refused as there isn't the funding to do this, this year.

So Beran suggested a version of the proposed plan:

- 5 mentees, to be proposed by each RALO, but actually selected, one per region, by the ALAC Selection Committee. - 1 mentor selected from a slate of applicants, by the ALAC Selection Committee

The mentor starts mentoring all 5 mentees through a set of calls throughout the year, with the 5 mentees. The mentor travels to each of the ICANN meetings in the year. With 3 ICANN meetings in a year, 2 mentees go to March meeting. 2 mentees go to June meeting. 1 mentee goes to AGM in November. Thus, all 5 mentees have had a chance to attend one funded ICANN meeting. This means there is actually a shortfall of only 2 travel slots, one at the March meeting and one at the June meeting. As the focus for mentoring is about policy, one slot for each of these two meetings could be a discretionary slot current available for a policy person to take part in the meeting.

This is just a simple proposal - Feedback/Comments welcome as soon as possible! We need to have finalised a process by the end of this week.

Hello Eduardo, I guess that is exactly what this thread is intended to achieve. Olivier is taking us through the process of finalising on this and am sure those information required by your RALO will be made available. It may be good to know though if you (or your RALO) supports the process proposed by Olivier. As your question about how staff selects final slate, u stand to be corrected but I think it's each community that finalizes their slate and sends to staff; staff will not do the selection and I also don't think they will reject candidates recommended by the respective community.

Dear Eduardo, I love your many cents….. lol. I have a problem with the overall conception of the COP since I don’t feel we don’t all have the same understanding: To be efficient, how long should the program last for each mentee???? Shall it be continuous for each mentee???? Do we have the ability to take the travel support of the mentor and give it to another mentee???? Is it important to have more mentees with shorter mentoring period and less F2F meeting attended????

I propose the following:

​For travel slots:

1. The program mentor should be selected from within ​the ​funded ALAC members and RALO officers​ pool​. If we do this there will be one additional travel spot for each meeting since these two sets are currently funded.​ This will cover the second travel slot for each meeting.

For Mentors/Mentees: Ratio: One Mentor to 6 Mentees One Mentor selected for a 3 meeting period. Selection to occur after the AGM for each cycle. No term limited. ​​Two Mentees selected for a 3 meeting period. Selection to occur after the Annual General Meeting (AGM). Term Limited. ​Six ​distinctive ​Mentees​ ​to be selected using a round-robin scheme with regional balance as follows: ​One Mentee to be from the region where the meeting is held​ The second to be selected using the following algorithm: ​With five regions: A,B,C,D & E where the meeting is held on a rotational scheme, the second Mentee may be selected as follows: ​Mentee #1 | Mentee #2 A | D B | E C | A D | B E | C

​​For nominations to the program:

​Before each AGM, each RALO nominates their Mentor/Mentee​s and sends recommendation to ALAC and the ALAC Appointee Selection Committee <https://community.icann.org/display/atlarge/ALAC+Subcommittee+on+Appointee+S...> (AASC) for Mentees' final approval. This to happen before the end of the AGM. ALAC nominates their Mentor and sends to AASC for Mentor's final selection from the RALOs and ALAC pool of nominations. This to happen after the AGM. AASC selects final slate and sends it to the Community Onboarding Pilot Program (COPP) Program manager for final approval.

My many cents.

I am not disputing that. But with an already funded Mentor, two mentees per meeting x 3 meetings = 6 slots in total. We have 5 RALOs. If we follow the "4 or 5 consecutive ICANN meetings" strategy, some RALOs will not benefit from the Onboarding program at all. Kindest regards,

Understand your concern Olivier if we conceive the COP on one single year. Glenn, if the mentorship consists in attending sessions, it can’t lead to on boarding. Perhaps we need to define first the objective of the program. I know it’s too complex. It is because the staff conceived a program without consulting the community, and now, we have to take over something that we didn’t discuss the objectives, the expected outcome and the process. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tijani BEN JEMAA Executive Director Mediterranean Federation of Internet Associations (FMAI) Phone: +216 98 330 114 +216 52 385 114 -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dear all,

APRALO has been silent through these discussions, as we already have our own Mentoring program which was considered reasonably successful (although it had no funding). We were planning to continue our program into its second edition.

Now that the Onboarding Program is gathering momentum, we are exploring how we can dovetail our program into the OP. Maureen and Holly will report back in the forthcoming ALAC call with our suggestions.

I am not disputing that. But with an already funded Mentor, two mentees per meeting x 3 meetings = 6 slots in total. We have 5 RALOs. If we follow the "4 or 5 consecutive ICANN meetings" strategy, some RALOs will not benefit from the Onboarding program at all. Kindest regards,

Olivier

Understand your concern Olivier if we conceive the COP on one single year.

We can indeed have the COP as a full year, with mentees that have a full year. However, I think many equate the COP to travel slots. I think we need to move away from this: travel is good, but the mentoring process takes us way further, as it involves being present on conference calls and having regular calls with the mentor. Kindest regards, Olivier

Tijani: We have an opportunity here to define our own "program" which includes criteria, selection process and expectations. I want to add that we need some way in evaluating the result of this program so going forward we can weed out what does not work and embrace/enhance what works. -ed On Sat, Nov 25, 2017 at 1:58 AM Tijani BEN JEMAA < tijani.benjemaa@benjemaa.com> wrote:

I know it’s too complex. It is because the staff conceived a program without consulting the community, and now, we have to take over something that we didn’t discuss the objectives, the expected outcome and the process.

Dear all,

APRALO has been silent through these discussions, as we already have our own Mentoring program which was considered reasonably successful (although it had no funding). We were planning to continue our program into its second edition.

Now that the Onboarding Program is gathering momentum, we are exploring how we can dovetail our program into the OP. Maureen and Holly will report back in the forthcoming ALAC call with our suggestions.

Eduardo, all I have been working twice with Janice before hand last year about on how to improve the project. My opinion for this good idea is to select people from each Ralo, as each Ralo normally does for other positions, no need to change anything - Requisites shall be put clear from ALAC and then used to selection process to all Ralos. Ralos can send their own priorities to the Omboarding staff . Best, Vanda Scartezini Polo Consultores Associados Av.

Thanks Dev. My personal feeling is I cringe when seeing CROP, by its very definition being for "Outreach", being used to travel to an ICANN meeting, which really is inside the ivory tower, thus engagement rather than outreach. But RALOs are of course free to do as they wish. Kindest regards, Olivier On 20/11/2017 17:00, Dev Anand Teelucksingh wrote:

Thanks Olivier and Beran for this.

A reminder that CROP could be used by the RALO in the region where ICANN F2F meeting takes place.

So NARALO could use CROP to send a mentee to ICANN Puerto Rico and LACRALO could use CROP to send a mentee to Panama. That would therefore allow for a 2nd mentee to come from COP funding to Puerto Rico and Panama.

Some thoughts on conditions

- mentors and mentees need to have conference calls before the ICANN F2F meetings to explain what is At-Large using the At-Large community onboarding documentation and also be able to present on the policy work happening in ALAC and ICANN. Since the calls would be public, it would also offer opportunities for new fellows and nextgen persons to also attend. - commit to edit and update the community onboarding materials. - mentor and mentees be part of the O&E and continue after the travel to refine the onboarding approach for future mentors/mentees

How is everyone choosing their onboarding candidate from their region. What are the criteria? APRALO is going to run its internal mentoring programme again.How do we choose one who will get funding to go to however many ICANN meetings? Is that for the mentor as well? M On Mon, Nov 20, 2017 at 7:38 AM, Dev Anand Teelucksingh <devtee@gmail.com> wrote:

Its better than not having a 2nd mentee at all since there will be no funding from the COP for more than one mentee. And this is where the RALO has to decide whether if they think bringing a person to be a mentee at an ICANN meeting will work for At-Large. If the mentee will be committing to work on a policy issue, work to promote At-Large if from a territory without an ALS, commits to participate in the conference calls, commits to work on onboarding documents, etc then I'm sure the GSE will support such a CROP proposal. And then look at creative ways to offset the challenges of CROP conditions of 4 days, 3 nights if more days at the ICANN meeting are necessary. For example, can local ALSes help with finding another space outside of the ICANN hotels that's much cheaper?
