DESCRIPTION:A Consultants Committee Virtual Meeting\n\nA few years ago the 
 [IEEE-USA Consultants Committee](https://ieeeusa.org/committees/aicncc/) p
 olled local consultants network chairs to find out the status of their loc
 al consultants network. What the Consultants Committee learned is that man
 y local consultants networks are having trouble organizing in-person meeti
 ngs. We also learned that many chairs have questions about activities of t
 he IEEE-USA Consultants Committee.\n\nOn January 30 at 12:00pm-1:00pm EST\
 , the IEEE-USA Consultants Committee is again sponsoring a virtual worksho
 p for local consultant network chairs. We have asked senior committee memb
 ers William Kassebaum and Larry Nelson to give a presentation on key activ
 ities and services of IEEE-USA Consultants Committee. In addition\, these 
 committee members will add their commentary about what independent consult
 ants should expect in 2025.\n\nAfter the presentation\, there will be a Q/
 A with members of the IEEE-USA Consultants Committee. IEEE-USA Consultants
  Committee members want to address any questions about the committee&#39;s act
 ivities that local chairs may have. The speakers will address any addition
 al questions chairs may have regarding the presentation.\n\nSo\, we invite
  all Chairs\, Vice Chairs and other network officers\, as well as potentia
 l future Board members\, to register and attend this online event.\n\nThis
  meeting will be recorded to be used as an on Demand resource.\n\nSpeaker(
