To: Region 3 ExCom Fr: David G. Green, Region 3 Director-Elect Sb: Director-Elect's Report for November Region 3 ExCom Dt: 26 October 2010 Thanks to all the Region 3 Volunteers who worked to share the CWPC's Career Survival for Engineers and Scientists in the 21st Century workshop with Section members throughout Region 3. Special thanks to the core team of Lee Stogner, Ed Kirchner, George McClure, and Charles Lord. We also had help from IEEE-USA Staff Member John Yaglenski with the broadcast of the event as well as capturing the content for later use. I hope many sections had a successful program based on this content. Please let the team know how things worked and if this was a benefit to your members. The new Region 3 Collaboration Site at https://region3.oc.ieee.org/ now has 81 Region 3 volunteers registered.
