collaborate with the  Non  Commercial Users Constituency<br>

course  at  ICANN61with  an  external  consultant during  the  regular<br>
 public  meeting schedule. The face-to-face training at ICANN61 will<br>
focus  on  skills  development  for policy  writing. Additional<br>
resources flexibility is not available in  FY18 to  support additional<br>
 travelers for  the  travel component of  this  request, but the  NCUC<br>

already be attending the ICANN61 meeting to sign up for the<br>
face-to-face component of this training effort. On a pilot  basis,<br>
additional  webinars  could  be  incorporated  into  this  program  as<br>
 a substitute for students who cannot participate in the face-to-face<br>
training.<br>
