An independent assessment firm will evaluate all nominees. Nominees for the Board will also be interviewed, subject to background checks, and further evaluated against criteria set in the guidance letter provided by the Board of Trustees.
Nominees for the Board will appear on the slate of candidates with a classification of "Qualified" or "Qualified and Additional Recommended Skills." For the AC and NRO NC, all nominees evaluated as "Qualified" will appear on the slate without any label next to their name. The initial slate will not include any nominees evaluated as "Not Qualified."
Voting in the 2026 ARIN Elections will be held 22-30 October to fill three seats on the Board and five seats on the AC. The initial slate of candidates will be announced on Tuesday, 8 September.
