==== Leadership ====

* Proficient in their primary language.
 
=== Process ===
 
There are two primary processes of inviting participants. One is a nomination-based proces and the other is an application-based process.
 
==== Nomination-based ====
 
* Key Reps community leaders nominate participants through range voting.
* Make sure the pathway of the nominees is clear so that we can make sure there is a balance of participants.
* Invitation Group with CBT, regional community manager from engagement and key local reps decide on final list.
 
==== Application-based ====
 
* Invite open applications based on the participation criteria.
* Have key local reps and the functional area leads go through the list and do range voting.
* Make sure the pathway of the nominees is clear so that we can make sure there is a balance of participants.
* Invitation Group with CBT and regional community manager from engagement decide on final list.
