IEEE Professional Activities Tarek Lahdhiri Region 4 MD Chair, IEEE-USA ECS Committee Vishnu Pandey Region 1 S-PAC Coordinator Donald Herres Region 1 PACE Coordinator IEEE-USA Leadership Workshop Tucson, AZ - 12 March 2005

Whatizzit??? l M-PAC: Membership Professional Awareness Conference. l S-PAC: Student Professional Awareness Conference. l Benefits: These conferences promotes the professional interests of IEEE's U.S. members and provides a mechanism for communication of members' views on their professional needs. l How: The format could be conference, workshop, presentation, etc…

Why??? l Technical Skills are not sufficient in todays employment market l Outsourcing trends will continue l Engineers need to communicate directly with customers and suppliers as part of the value added process l Networking l 70% of jobs are found this way l This is even more important for small companies

The Easy Way l IEEE-USA PACE Committee l Employment & Career Activities Committee l Both meet twice a year rotating the US Regions l Each Committee has speakers ready for presentations at your Student Branch or Section l Contact your Regional PACE and E&CS Coordinators and invite them to be presenters l Speaker costs are already paid

Speakers l MPACs l acspeakers.html l SPACs l ees/spac/speaker_topic.html l feel free to invite speakers from either list

$$$$ l MPACs l Contact your Regional PACE Coordinator l There are dedicated IEEE-USA funds for MPACs l SPACs l Contact your Regional SPAC Coordinator l There are dedicated IEEE-USA funds for SPACs l Regional PACE Project funds can be used if additional funding is required

Generate the Idea l From local economic situation l Request from several members l Receiving several inquiries about a specific topic l Attending conferences l Participating in region meetings l Discussions in Forums and Virtual Communities

To Develop Technical Skills In Industry and at Our Universities, We Use Technical Laboratories

Use IEEE As A Forum To Enhance Non-Technical Skills

S-PAC/M-PAC FOCUS TOPICS CareerGrowth Working Self Management The Engineer & Public Policy Professional Ethics & Societal Responsibilities Role of the Professional Society

Lets Talk About Organizing a Conference

l Organizers of conferences gain project management experience (impressive on resumes). l Attendees leave with a continuous consciousness of a non- technical aspect that will be useful for the rest of their lives. l Opportunity to network with those in industry/academia. l Successful conferences in any section makes it easier for that Branch to institute the event on a regular basis. l Lure potential volunteers out of their hiding spots Benefits for Holding S-PACs/M-PACs

What about the CONFERENCE EXPERIENCE?!!?!?

What did they do wrong? l Inadequate advertising? l Inconvenient program date or time? l Unappealing program topics? l Inconvenient location?

Things to Keep in Mind Before Organizing a Conference l You may not be successful your first time. l Learn from your mistakes and try again. l Dont be afraid to ask your members what they want to see. l Always Always Always get feedback.
