Educational Activities Mission • Coordinate the Educational Activities • Develop Educational Programs for: Lifelong Learning of our Members Actively Participate in Engineering Accreditation (IEEE, ABET, ASEE) Pre-College (K-12) Programs Provide Forums (e.g., Conferences, Workshops, Seminars) for Members to Enhance their Professional and Educational Experiences

  3. Educational Resources • Resources are available from IEEE for Lifelong Learning • (Continuing Education) • In addition, Region/Section and local resources (Universities, Industry, Government) can be used. e.g., seminars offered by universities and R4 EIT conferences • IEEE Center for Education & Training provides a central platform for the collection, hosting and delivery of educational and training materials • Members can join Learning Communities - groups of individuals who have a shared purpose and a common interest • search the course database, find a conference, learn about new technologies

  4. Educational Resources • These Communities provide you with a forum to discuss vital issues in your technical area, the latest articles and papers, networking opportunities with others in your field, peer and expert advice to help you in your job, and so much more • Because of the rapid changes/development in the expertise areas of IEEE members, it is essential that members be encouraged to attend regular seminars, workshops, short courses, and conferences. Information about these educational activities are often available through Web sites, newsletters and regular mailings
