    Oracle Customer Advisory Board (CAB) Nominations

    Initiative Contacts: Debra Lilley IOUC

    The CAB Nomination Program was a joint initiative of the IOUC Product Development Committee and Oracle Development. This initiative provided an opportunity for user groups to nominate user group members for CABs providing they met the criteria below.

    The initiative was popular and provided a few new names on CABs, however for existing CABs organizations prefer direct invitations. Where the initiative was most successful was for forming a new CAB and this is what we will concentrate on in future.

    These organisations were successful in previous nomination processes via the IOUC:
