> IMPORTANT: Criteria for NomCom Delegates
> Specific criteria and requirements regarding the NomCom composition and NomCom delegates are outlined in the ICANN Bylaws in Article 8 <https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article8>.  
> Please read the Job Description for NomCom Delegates <https://community.icann.org/download/attachments/231375118/2024%20NomCom%20Job%20Description.pdf?version=1&modificationDate=1680196962000&api=v2>. Additionally, please note the following as you select and appoint your delegate to the 2024 NomCom:
> Ineligibility for Service – Current or future ICANN employees or paid ICANN consultants (including Ombudsman) are excluded from consideration for eligibility as described in Article 8, Section 8.9 of ICANN’s Bylaws <https://www.icann.org/resources/pages/governance/bylaws-en/#article8>.
> The ICANN community is diverse and the composition of the NomCom should reflect this in order to fulfill its mission.   
> NomCom delegates should have a high-level network of contacts essential to candidate recruitment.
> The delegate should be able to join monthly teleconferences. Note that the NomCom's workload will increase significantly during the candidate assessment process. Conference calls are held more frequently during this time as well (typically weekly and the duration of the calls may last up to three hours).
> All NomCom delegates should have the ability to travel to and participate in ICANN Public meetings and NomCom meetings when requested (travel and hotel accommodations will be provided for all approved meetings). If travel is restricted, then NomCom delegates will meet virtually.
> IMPORTANT: RALOs may recommend one or more candidates to the ALAC. The appointment of NomCom delegates is carried out by the ALAC. Therefore, RALO recommendations are not binding.
