2. IEEE Sections Congress is the opportunity for IEEE volunteers from around the world to participate in a truly unique event. The congress provides the attendees to increase their leadership skills and to gain a working knowledge of IEEE.
It is also a venue to express concerns and opinions through the recommendations process. The recommendations, that the Section Delegates vote on, are then used by the IEEE Board of Directors to guide IEEE into the future.
This is an overall view of what IEEE Sections Congress represents.
