North Jersey Volunteer Open House, Officer Training, Senior Mbr Info Session

#Section #Excom #Business #Volunteers #Leadership #Training

The IEEE North Jersey Section is proud to announce it annual end of the
year executive committee meeting and updated workshop agenda. Each year,
the election results for new officers for the North Jersey section for the
following year are announced by the tellers committee at the December
executive committee meeting. The new officers are then installed and
take office in the coming January. This year's agenda has been expanded
to address a number of key topics in response to member requests.

A number of section IEEE members and non-members have been inquiring how
they can become more informed about and involved with the section and
different IEEE activities being held throughout the year. Some from
increased attendance and others from increased active participation and
volunteering for different events.

From those who are already active volunteers, many have inquired how they
can take on leadership roles in the section and beyond and what is exactly
involved and expected with officer positions. Lastly, many members have
inquired how they can apply for a senior-member grade elevation and go
about obtaining required elements of their senior member application.

To help the membership, the December executive committee meeting will host
a volunteer open house which will give all attendees the opportunity to meet
North Jersey section chapter and committee officers, as well as a chance to
talk and explore individually, potential volunteering opportunities with
their areas of interest. Current vacant positions will also be reviewed.

There will also be an officer training session for the newly elected
officers to educate them and committee members on their responsibilities
and basic required operations of the section. Lastly, there will be an
information session on the senior member grade elevation process for
those seeking senior membership with an active application in process.

All section members are invited to attend, especially those who are interested
in learning how to stay better informed of section and area wide IEEE
activities that are occurring. For those interested in becoming more active
in general IEEE activities, in becoming actual volunteers, officers or
seeking senior member grade elevation. Student and Graduate Student members
are encouraged to attend and learn how they can continue their IEEE
participation beyond the university.

The event will be held at NJIT in the ECE Building, Lecture Room 202.
There is free parking in the enclosed parking deck next to the ECE building
and a free buffet dinner will be served for all attendees. RSVP is required
below.
