Dear Councillors,

The new ccNSO Onboarding and Mentoring Committee (OMC) seeks volunteers. Who from Council is interested in applying? Please let me know latest by Tuesday, 17 September, end of day.

As per its charter, the composition of the OMC is as follows:

“The OMC shall have minimum four (4) and maximum eight (8) members. Membership of the OMC is open to representatives of ccTLD managers (members and non-members of the ccNSO alike). At least three (3) of the members on the Committee should be members of the ccNSO Council, including one NomCom appointed Councillor.”

The ccNSO OMC is established as a standing committee. It’s objectives are to:

• Develop an ongoing program for on-boarding and mentoring of (potential) newcomers to the ccNSO. 
• Oversee and execute the on-boarding and mentoring programs 
• Increase awareness of the ccNSO with other programs for newcomers, for example the ICANN’s fellowship program and coordinate on-boarding and mentoring efforts with other Supporting Organizations and Advisory Committees. 
• Maintain and - when deemed necessary - develop additional ccNSO learning material 

Please find a copy of the charter enclosed. A call for volunteers to the broader community will go out today as well.

Best regards,

Joke Braeken
