In 2019 the DC worked on its first task a [[Taxonomy of Schools on Internet Governance|taxonomy for describing Schools on Internet Governance (SIG)]]. This document is trying to capture the variety that exists among the existing programs and the features of the various types of schools. This work continues in 2020, with an attempt to fill in gaps that still exist in the document plus reviewing its structure to see what can be improved. The DC is also starting to work on an [[Operations Guide|Operations Guide for SIGs]]


Introduction
Both [[Taxonomy of Schools on Internet Governance]] and the [[Operations Guide]] are open for comment.
The delivery of a successful school (regardless the length) requires a substantial amount of planning and execution to be successful. Most schools have been the inspiration and dedication of a small determined group of individuals inventing the process of operating a school by trial and error.
The goal of this document is to provide key ideas to setup and run a successful school. Obviously the granularity of a school is a reflection of the personality type of the founder. No single answer is completely right or wrong but lots of shades of grey
