Thank you to everyone in the community, who has registered to vote and/or spread the news about the upcoming Technical Oversight Committee (TOC) election!

The community has been asked to elect three members of the core decision-making body of the Open edX project, the TOC. The three elected community representatives will be responsible for governing the overall stewardship and technical direction of the Open edX project, along with three TOC members from Axim Collaborative, and three TOC members from 2U/edX. 

As a project, we were able to attract a variety of candidates representing diverse backgrounds and skills. These individuals understand that an investment in the Open edX Project is also an investment in the community. The below list of candidates have consistently demonstrated their commitment to both the Open edX Project and our community and are leading experts in the field of education technology. Without further ado, please see below our incredibly skilled list of candidates:
