DESCRIPTION:We all know about the global IEEE organization\, with its socie
 ties and conferences and so forth. But many of us don't know that\, as US-
 based members of IEEE\, we are also part of IEEE-USA. IEEE-USA provides se
 rvices that are country-specific: what does the US job market look like fo
 r engineers? What kind of career paths and training are useful in the US? 
 And\, the focus of this talk\, what should we be advocating for in state a
 nd federal government policies? In particular\, the R&DPC advocates for re
 search funding\, immigration reform\, and regulatory changes to make IEEE 
 members work more effectively and efficiently. You are invited to share yo
 ur insights on what we should be supporting at the national level. More im
 portantly\, the R&DPC is always looking for new members\; please consider 
 volunteering.\n\nSpeaker(s): Chuck Thorpe\, \n\nVirtual: https://events.vt
