<p dir="ltr">An addition to Fahd's post is that one can request to create a course. So the internet governance course can be created there for instance. However like it's been mentioned earlier there are quite a number of online training on internet governance already existing in this region.</p>

Hello Hafedh...<br>Thank you for the information you have provided.... my line of thought which is similar to what you have presented is based in the observation that a number of people seem to have illusions in their understanding of what is ICANN. Too many hearsays and misinformations have happened to even at higher levels...is it due to to the fact that there is a tendency of not taking time to read the basics or believing in what they are told?<u></u><u></u></p>
<p>....need I say more? We have seen the obvious ignorance around us..<u></u><u></u></p><p>Cheers<br>Yassin<u></u><u></u></p><div><p class="MsoNormal">On 26 Jul 2014 16:47, "hafedh" <<a href="mailto:hafedhyahmadi@hotmail.com" target="_blank">hafedhyahmadi@hotmail.com</a>> wrote:<u></u><u></u></p>
<div><div><p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p><p class="MsoNormal">Here are some insights when it comes to Internet governance trainings and capacity building in Africa. Although internet outreach is still a big issue in Africa, I see two critical outreach engines for Africans to boost skills development and capacity building about internet governance and the core values of ICANN as well as the technical skills such IPv6 and DNSSEC, Root Server, etc . First, a breadth engine is required to maximize the outreach carrying out the primary ICANN school content like the principles, definitions and all content for new comers and ordinary audiences, Second the depth engine which should target an upper level advanced audience where trainings are more in depth about internet governance such what does mean transparency, human rights in internet, neutrality of the net, and advanced level on IPv6 deployment, whta's ICANN accountability means in the transition period, etc ... I would even suggest an ICANN certification Program, a kind of international accredited institution, like CISCO, Microaoft or oracle academy!! Last and not least, when reading this discussion, I jumped on my chair cause the subject is so vibrant and relevant to reshape the future of internet governance in Africa. Education and training is the force of the future, I have been engaged on this subject since a while as part of my engineering concerns on internet, I have gathered a set of data, content, I shared feedbacks with some ICANN friends, etc .. let’s get together to share thoughts and ideas, its important to reanimate such a great debate for a concrete plan or action<u></u><u></u></p>

There is enough misinformation in the air right now....that is why I would like to suggest so since the Internet nerds a specific and special approach to its global existence and reach at the moment.....I would not be comfortable with some suggestions since 'Trust and Truth' are a very hard Currency to trade on ..<br>
