Volunteer Resources

There are a number of resources available for volunteers to both accomplish their goals and get training to help them do their job.

Region 7 Volunteer Training Materials

The IEEE Region 7 Volunteer Training Workspace on Collabratec where you will find a number of presentations from past region training sessions, archived training sessions, and other relevant information posts.

In addition to defining the role of the Region Board, Executive Committee, and Steering Committee (and each constituent position), the Region By-Laws and Operations Manual define what each Committee does. As a Region, IEEE Canada falls under the Member and Geographic Activities Board, which has it’s own Operations Manual (which also applies to us and supersedes our manual).

MGA Vitality Resources

The MGA Section Vitality page that provides information to help maintain a vital section (which goes hand in hand with the Section Vitality Survey that section Chairs, or their delegates, fill out every year).

The CLE has courses targeted at each section officer, including
* Chair
* Vice Chair

# YP (Young Professionals) Affinity Group Chair
