From Bala's email on September 3, 2024

Good Morning R1 ExCom, Section Chairs & Members of BOG.

Hope you all had a great summer!

IEEE places great emphasis on the Code of Ethics and Code of Conduct of its volunteers and staff.
Awareness, adherence and compliance to this is extremely important .

The Code of Ethics & Code of Conduct were updated in 2020 and they are available at:
(These are short, no more than one page documents. (3 documents that are repetitive in substance))

https://www.ieee.org/about/corporate/governance/p7-8.html

Our Region 1 Membership Development Chair Oscar Tonello is leading an effort to get Region 1 leaders, officers and volunteers become aware of  IEEE Code of Ethics through a study and assessment program.

Here is the ask from Oscar:

R1 ExCom, Section Chairs & BoG will review of Code of Ethics/Code of Conduct and complete the assessment. (The assessment involves 10 questions you need to answer and should get at least 70% right.)

Section Chairs are asked to have their section officers and chapter officers complete the review and assessment in the second round.

Oscar  will work with you to reach non-volunteer IEEE members in the third round.

There will be recognition of those who complete the assessment by Sept 28, 2024 with a beautiful, collector grade R1/R2 Ethics pin.

Other recognitions will be shared by Oscar in his communications with you.

The Code of Ethics and Code of Conduct Awareness & Assessment was initially started by R10 and we are taking their generous help to get R1 members complete their review and assessment.
