I would be more than happy to create a small survey which will include around 5 major training areas that APNIC provide and then we could reach out to the ALS'es and get a quick vote. Pavan On Tue, Jul 30, 2013 at 11:43 AM, Maureen Hilyard <hilyard@oyster.net.ck>wrote:
Hi Holly and APRALO members
We are currently organising training sessions with APNIC for our PacINET in Tonga in September (the week after the regional IGF). APNIC has been a part of our PICISOC conference every year for years. And Save is also a regular PacINET participant so our members get ICANN updates as well.
Because we hold our PacINET in a different country each year, APNIC is able to do outreach for themselves and offer skills updates not only for PICISOC members, but also to non-PICISOC members from the host country whom we encourage to attend..
Their training is included in our outreach strategy and encourages new members to join up with PICISOC as a result of what they learn from our conference, the training, and the networking contacts they make.
I can certainly recommend including APNIC training sessions and workshops into your own events, especially as you can choose what training you need and for how long, etc.

Hi Everyone
Just to follow up on a relationship (and maybe MoU) with APNIC.
Before I get back to APNIC, please everyone, have a look at the APNIC site (APNIC.net)
The offer lots of training on a range of numbering issues, including one hour online sessions on a range of Internet issues and longer 2 or 3 day workshops throughout the region.
They also participate and/or hold many conferences. And maybe we can see speaking slots in their conferences
I imagine what we would want to ask for (at the least) is updates on their training activities - particularly in the various APNIC region. We may also want free or reduced cost participation in the longer training courses and possible reduced or free access to their conferences - and maybe free access to some of their materials in their library. (I am not sure how much it all costs, but that could be worked through).
I am sure there are a variety of needs in each ALS. So the first step is everyone having a look at their site and see what they offer that would be of particular interest to your ALS.
With that information, I can get back to APNIC and start discussions on closer cooperation
Thanks
HOlly
