Participation Credits

It is part of the OIC Charter to provide Intellectual Property Credits for participation and contributions to raising awareness and increasing knowledge of Electronic Information Technology [EIT] issues. Please refer to the Members Mandates.

In recognition of Knowledge as an asset, the OIC has developed an Electronic Participation Credits process.

This process, as part of the Electronic Event Registration Management [EERM] system, records the Intellectual Property Asset for the individual, the organisation which employees the individual and the OIC. There are 7 types of Electronic Credits:
TypeCredit
AAccommodation
EEntertainment
FFinancial
HHealth
LLearning
NNourishment
TTravel

The Participation Credits for the Open Source & Linux Special Interest Group are:

1Attending.1.10.1.1.1.1
2Preparation.2.20.2.2.2.2
3Presentations.3.30.3.3.3.3
4Submissions.2.20.2.2.2.2
5Feedback.1.10.1.1.1.1

In line with many professional bodies, these credits are on a time basis of 1 unit = 3 minutes. Hence the attendance credits for a OIC Work Group meeting from 17:30 - 20:30 would be 180 mins/3 = 60 units. Thus the accreditation for attending each Work Group meeting would be:
UNITSAEFHLNT
Individual606606666
Organisation606606666
OIC606606666

The rules and the value of these Electronic Credits are being defined. However it is envisaged that the Credit system will operate as a similar concept to flybuy credits and Internet electronic credits such as beenz.com.au
