Liberty Mutual Outlines Benefits
of Renters Insurance

Renters insurance can protect the possessions that matter to you from theft, fire and some types of water damage. According to  Liberty Mutual, your stuff may be worth more than you think when you consider computers, flat screen televisions, digital cameras or sporting equipment you may own in addition to your furniture, clothing and appliances. Renters insurance can help shield you from a financial setback should your possessions get damaged or stolen—in your home or in your car. Averaging just US$10-12 monthly, renters insurance is a smart way to make sure you’re protected. Your affiliation with IEEE may qualify you for extra savings.

IEEE Globalization of Professional Activities
|
IEEE has created a group of representatives from all over the world to (1) inventory and assess the current state of Professional Activities within IEEE, (2) compile data on member interests and preferences related to Professional Activities, their management and financing, and (3) develop a strategic plan to assist all regions in developing Professional Activities tailored to their specific needs and the interests of their local members.
This group is working to fulfill the IEEE Constitutional obligations to address the professional needs of all members, regardless of geographic location. During the fact-finding process IEEE-USA will provide all IEEE members with the opportunity to download four e-Books (normally $4.95 each) for free and access to archived webinars on a variety of topics.
Take advantage of the free professional activities resources that are available as a benefit to all IEEE members.
