REMINDER INVITATION TO JOIN: ccNSO Guidelines Review Committee Virtual Open Space ccNSO & Continuous Improvement
by Kimberly Carlson Feb. 8, 2024

Feb. 8, 2024

ccNSO Guidelines Review Committee Virtual Open Space ccNSO and Continuous Improvement [cid:image001.png@01DA5A90.B3941DB0] Please join the Guidelines Review Committee on 14 February at 14:00 UTC for a virtual Open Space Session. The GRC has embarked on an important effort to construct a Continuous Improvement program (CIP) for the ccNSO, and we need your help. [cid:image003.png@01DA5A90.B3941DB0] This is an entirely virtual meeting and preregistration is required. Registration link: https://icann.zoom.us/meeting/register/tJ0kce2orT0oE9PhMA2i0EtbbfeoVktP80Cg [cid:image004.png@01DA5A90.B3941DB0]Rather than expecting improvement of the ccNSO to be ‘delivered’ via periodic batches of recommendations led by outsiders, we are provided the opportunity to improve the ccNSO continuously. The GRC is pursuing just what a Continuous Improvement Program (CIP) framework would look like and how it would operate for ccNSO. We need your help. To that end, we are planning a community event and are asking for your participation.
