Dear Region 3 ExCom, Section Chairs and Sections Congress Delegates,

This is the next to last Region 3 ExCom of 2011 and we still have a lot to do
to support our fellow members. Key topics that will be discussed tonight
include,

  - Sections Congress 2011. I've asked all of our Delegates to prepare a
    "bullet list" of activities that can be delivered at their home Section as
    a result of their new knowledge gained at Sections Congress 2011.

  - Section Jobs Board. Ed Kirchner, George McClure and I have been promoting
    the creation of "Jobs Boards" in every Section. This is where local
    resources gather, maintain and communicate the available jobs that are in
    the area around the Section. For more information on this topic, George
    McClure has written an article at,
    https://www.todaysengineer.org/2011/Sep/unemployment.asp The creation of a
    Section Jobs Board can be one of your key activities coming from Sections
    Congress.

  - Huntsville Metro Area Workshop. IEEE MGA along with help from the
    Huntsville Section has developed a workshop that will give you a unique
    learning experience that will greatly benefit your career. Technical
    topics have been carefully selected that will ensure that you are up to
    date on technology that is in demand today. In addition, on the second
    day, a special track on Career Assistance will be offered. This is an
    offering that your company will see value in your participation. Please
    review the workshop detail at,
    https://www.ieee.org/membership_services/mga_maw_agenda.html and in the
    attachment. Please try to attend this important workshop in Region 3 and
    ask your company to support you. Also please quickly tell the rest of your
    Section that this workshop will be held in Huntsville on November 4-5,
    2011 at the Von Braun Center.

We will talk more and answer all of your questions tonight.

Sincerely,

Lee Stogner, PMP
Director, Region 3
