==Next Generation Leaders Programme==
ISOC partnered with the [[DiploFoundation]] to create the Next Generation Leaders (NGL) Programme, which focuses on helping Internet professionals between the ages of 20 and 40 to "develop their leadership potential where technology, business, policy, and education intersect". The curriculum is both academic and field based, and components can be completed independently or in conjunction with one another. The programme accepts applicants that have already shown a disposition towards leadership in Internet governance in order to further their potential and create more prepared leaders; it is open only to ISOC members.<ref>[http://www.internetsociety.org/what-we-do/leadership-programmes/next-generation-leaders-ngl-programme Next Generation Leaders NGL Programme]</ref>
The inaugural 2010 class received over 200 applications, 23 applicants were chosen to participate in the programme's first key component, the eLearning Course. The NGL Programme is sponsored by [[Nominet Trust]], [[AFNIC]], and the [[European Commission]]. Additional support has been provided by [[Microsoft]], [[Intel]], [[Afilias]], and [[Google]] for the NGL’s Internet Society Fellowship to the [[IETF]] component.<ref>[http://isoc.org/wp/newsletter/?p=2450 Newsletter, ISOC.org]</ref>
