What is an S-PAVe? Projects or activities conceived by IEEE Student Branches to develop an awareness of engineering professionalism Funded by IEEE through RAB/SAC/SPAA and IEEE USA SPAC Students develop the idea and submit a proposal for funding If approved, students receive funding to proceed with their planned venture and report results to IEEE
18
S-PAVe Program Goals Develop prototype activities/materials to enhance Student Member awareness of professional concerns Increase Student Membership, with focus on Freshmen, Sophomores, and Juniors Provide new services for Student Branch Membership Enable Student Branches to gain experience in project planning and organization
19
Ventures Can be of any nature except those that duplicate the Student Professional Awareness Conference (S-PAC) Suggested Formats: Service, Workshop, Video, Simulation, Resource Materials Examples - Make a video tape depicting ethical dilemmas - Develop an in-house training program that instructs students on how to run a meeting - Establish a resume evaluation service - Create a computer package that gives basic ideas on setting up your own company Can span days, weeks or months, but should not generally exceed one school semester
20
Elements of a Venture Proposal Venture summary form (from IEEE) Venture description and milestone list Budget Support letters Student Branch Counselor Regional S-PAC Coordinator (Regions 1- 6 only) Financial support letter
21
Venture Budget One or two pages itemizing income sources and expenditures A base amount of funds is provided (up to US$200.00) and additional funds on a matching basis One additional dollar of S-PAVe funds (over the base amount) may be requested for every dollar committed to the venture from other sources (e.g., IEEE Section, Student Branch, or local companies) All requested S-PAVe funds may not be awarded The maximum S-PAVe award is US$500.00
22
Venture Budget Example Assume that US$175.00 has been secured from the IEEE Section US$375.00 can be requested from S-PAVe funds - US$200.00 in base funding - US$175.00 as a dollar for dollar match to Section funds Total income would be US$550.00 - US$175.00 Section funds - US$375.00 S-PAVe funds S-PAVe FUNDS WILL BE PROVIDED TO THE STUDENT BRANCH ONCE THE VENTURE HAS BEEN APPROVED FOR FUNDING.
