nomination requires two endorsements from different people.
Anyone (including non-members) can nominate but only IEEE members (from any
Region) can endorse. Members of the IEEE Canada awards and executive
committees are ineligible to act as nominators or endorsers. Note that CVs
will not be accepted. Incomplete nomination and endorsement forms can not
be submitted and limits are enforced on input.
Late submissions must be resubmitted for consideration the following

If you are unable to use the online forms, you may use
Word to produce both forms, but you must follow the exact
sequence and format of the online forms (including the character
