IEEE JOB SITE REVENUE SHARE PROGRAM
FOR SECTIONS
In 2003, the IEEE Job Site has a valuable new
revenue share program for IEEE Sections. Your
Section can receive a ten percent commission from
the job posting fees of companies, which you refer
to the Job Site. Single job posts cost $175 for 30
days and multiple post contracts start at $570
for
four postings annually.
Sections are encouraged to make their local
members aware of the Job Site and to ask them to
enroll their recruitment managers for a free job
posting at https://www.spectrum.ieee.org/jobsite/hrmanagerform/.
This form requires that a member indicate their
local Section so that the referral can be tracked
for revenue share purposes. Member referral to
this page can be done through announcements at
meetings, Web site links and notices in e-mail and
print newsletters. Recruitment managers referred
by members will be contacted by Job Site staff to
place their free posting and to determine whether
they wish to pay for additional online job ads.
Each participating Section receives a quarterly
revenue activity report and their revenue share
commission is paid annually. For further details,
please contact Mike Buryk, Job Site business
development manager, at +1 212
419 7571, or m.buryk@ieee.org.

FIND CONFERENCES SCHEDULED IN YOUR
SECTION
There may be opportunities in a number of
Sections for enhancing technical opportunities.
IEEE Societies have hundreds of conferences around
the world each year. These conferences may be held
in the geographic area of your Section or in a
neighboring Section. The IEEE Conference Search
Web
Page can help your Section identify conferences
that will be held in the territory of your Section.
The web address is
https://www.ieee.org/conferencesearch/.
There is a sheet for each conference with
information on contacts, locations, and dates. The
Conference Search database can be searched for
city, state, Region, by sponsor, and by year.
For near term conferences, there may be a
possibility of setting up a Section meeting with a
world-renowned speaker who is in town for the
conference. The conference organizers may be able
to get your Section a discount for the meeting
room.
Your Section may be able to provide an
educational opportunity for members who are not
Society members by informing them and getting
access to a conference without travel.
There may be a revenue opportunity for
conferences that are in the planning stages, your
Section can provide volunteers and operational
support in areas such as registration, photography,
finance, guest programs, and other volunteer tasks.
The conference organizers probably won't contact
you, but
if you contact them with information about what
you can do for them, they may be interested and may
negotiate a sharing of profit.
The other opportunity is to meet active IEEE
members in your Section. Askif you can attend a
local organizing committee meeting, and meet active
IEEE members that you might not normally meet.
Invite them to Section meetings. You may even be
able to recruit them for a Section office!
CALL FOR RAB AWARD NOMINATIONS:
The strength of IEEE is the work of the
volunteer at the local level. Without the efforts
of the local volunteer, IEEE would not be able to
promote the understanding of the influence of
technology on the public welfare. These volunteers
need to be recognized for their efforts, we don't
recognize the local volunteers enough for their
work or the impact they have on society.
The RAB Awards and Recognition Program seeks to
honor the outstanding efforts of some of the most
invaluable IEEE Volunteers who have made
substantial Regional contributions through
innovative projects, exemplary leadership, service,
and by fulfilling the goals as related to
Transnational Activities. Each prestigious award
has a unique mission and criteria, and offers the
opportunity to honor distinguished colleagues,
inspiring teachers and corporate leaders. We are
currently accepting nominations for the following
RAB Awards:
* RAB Achievement Award
* RAB Innovation Award
* RAB Leadership Award
* RAB Larry K. Wilson Transnational Award
These awards, the most prestigious RAB has to
offer, are designed to recognize outstanding
efforts by IEEE volunteers. These are NOT technical
achievement awards. The deadline for nominations
is 15 October 2003. You can submit award
nominations online by visiting the following web
page:
https://www.ieee.org/rabawards.html.
As the nomination process, and the requisite
documentation, takes its own time, I would
recommend an early start.
If you have any queries please do not hesitate
to contact Hans Peek, Chair - RAB Awards &
Recognition Committee, at rab-awards@ieee.org
REMINDER - BOUNTY OFFERED FOR ARREARS
