A CNMCyber standup (hereinafter, the Standup) is any CNMCyber event that is a stand-up meeting (or simply standup) of stakeholders of CNMCyber such as members of CNMCyber Team and Friends Of CNM in which attendees typically participate while standing. The discomfort of standing for long periods is intended to keep the Standups short.


General provisions

Format

Main wikipage: CNMCyber event
Any Standup shall comply with the requirements to CNMCyber events. Any Standup comes in two general variations:
  1. Open-to-the-public Standups, which are open to attend, free-of-charge or with some associated costs; and
  2. Invitation-only Standups, which are limited to selected attendees.

Host

Main wikipage: CNM Event Organizer
Any Standup host shall comply with the requirements to CNM Event Organizers.

Recording

The original files of recorded Standups shall be stored in CNM Lab; simplified versions are published on CNM Tube. With regard to recording of the Standups:
  • Those supportive parts of the Standups, which are:
    1. Free-of-charge to the participants, shall be recorded;
    2. Paid by the participants, shall not be recorded unless all the participants agree on the recording in writing.
  • All the substantive parts of the Standups shall be recorded. Only members of the WorldOpp Fellow Staff and CNMCyber Team can actively participate in the substantive parts.

  2. Team members shall be able to report their progress and hear from the others.
  3. The team lead shall be able to know the obstacles in order to work on those.

Open standup agenda

By default, any Standup that is open to the general public consists of three parts:

5 minutes
2 Substantive 15 minutes
3 Supportive
  • CNM Cyber hiring pitch.
15 minutes
All of the presentations are pre-recorded and supposed to be viewed by the attendees before they arrive.

Embedded hiring pitch

A pitch that invites the participants to enroll in WorldOpp Orientation must be embedded into those Standups that are open to the general public.

Pricing

The Standup host decides whether the Standup is (a) free-of-charge to the participants, (b) paid by the participants, or (c) some combination of both. If the Standup is paid by the participants, partially or completely, the Standup host establishes its price.

Customer announcement
