US President-elect Donald Trump will select personnel to serve under his leadership and enact policies that “make the life of Americans affordable, safe, and secure” in the days and weeks ahead, Reuters quotes his campaign as saying.

However, CNN notes, Trump won’t take office until Jan 20, 2025 and there are multiple things that will happen between now and then. According to CNN, some of the key dates are:

December 11: Deadline for states to issue Certificates of Ascertainment

December 17: Electors vote in their states

January 3: New Congress begins

January 6: Congress counts electoral votes

January 20: Inauguration Day
