  3. Building the Pipeline of Professionals IEEE Pre-University Programs connect engineers and educators Pre-University Teacher In-Service Program (TISP) for IEEE-Sections • Features IEEE volunteers developing and presenting technical subject matter to pre-university educators in a professional development setting • Over 169 IEEE volunteers were trained in 2007, representing 8 countries • 86 lesson plans aligned with education standards are available • Overall, more than 3380 teachers have participated in a TISP session led by an IEEE volunteer - impacting over 368,000 students.

  4. IEEE Fostering Technological Innovation And Excellence For The Benefit Of Humanity  

  5. Continuing Education IEEE Expert Now More than 65 one-hour interactive online courses in IEEE’s technical areas of interest Subscriptions available for Corporate, University, Government and Individual Members Earn Continuing Education Units (CEUs) and Professional Development Hours (PDHs) IEEE Education Partners Program Online courses offered from university and corporate institutions at a discount

  6. IEEE Computer Society Certified Software Development Professional Program (CSDP) Certification for software developers with at least 5 years experience Under development – an entry level certification for recent graduates to assess their expertise vs. the body of knowledge IEEE Communications Society is developing the Wireless Communications Engineering Technology Certification Program IEEE is currently evaluating other certification opportunities in the areas of systems and biometrics Certification

  7. TryEngineering.org Explore Engineering Opportunities Find a University Lesson Plans A Web site for Engineering and Engineering Education for Counselors, Teachers, Parents and Students A joint project of IEEE, IBM and the New York Hall of Science. Ask an Expert Ask an Engineer Ask an Undergrad Student Play Games

  8. Accreditation.org A new IEEE portal devoted to accreditation of academic programs in engineering, computing and technology Provides an overview of accreditation Lists accrediting bodies worldwide Lists all the programs they accredit Provides links and contact information Provides accrediting body search by country IEEE EAB Responsible for carrying out accreditation process for U.S engineering, engineering technology programs Also participates in international accreditation activities

  9. Accreditation.org Provides information on accords and mutual-recognition agreements Including original text and interpretation Allows search of accredited programs Similar to “University Search” on TryEngineering.org Provides links to articles and reviews on accreditation

  10. IEEE Sections Sections provide a community of colleagues Members build a network through local Section, Chapter, Student Branch activities Develop new skills by taking an active role Gain management, teamwork and leadership experience Gain recognition for accomplishments and recognize the achievements of others

  11. Volunteers Are The Secret of IEEE’s Successes…

  12. So, maintain your enthusiasm, your energy, your dedication and support for IEEE. And, oh, yes. . .
