Date: 30 March 2009 4:28:21 AM MDT Subject: Call for Candidates for SASB/Committees
Hello:
The Nominations and Appointments Committee (N&A) of the IEEE-SA Board of Governors is soliciting the names of candidates to serve on the 2010 IEEE-SA Standards Board and/or its Standing Committees.
The IEEE-SA Standards Board is responsible for:
a) Encouraging and coordinating the development of IEEE standards.
b) Reviewing all proposed IEEE standards to determine whether the proposed standards conform to the requirements established by the IEEE-SA Standards Board and whether consensus has been achieved for approval of the proposed standards.
If you would like to be considered for the 2010 IEEE-SA Standards Board/Committees, please note the following rules that apply to any potential candidate, and forward a brief, one page bio with contact information (including your email address) to me at the address provided.
The deadline to respond is 1 June 2009.
The slate of candidates will be forwarded to the IEEE-SA Board of Governors Nominations and Appointments Committee (N&A) for their review later in the year, with a final decision to be made in November.
Rules for IEEE-SA Standards Board membership:
1. The time commitment is four meetings in 2010. The IEEE-SA Standards Board series covers three days. The Standing Committees of the Board (New Standards Committee, Review Committee, Procedures Committee, Patent Committee, Audit Committee) meet the first two days of the series and the Standards Board meets the final day. It is likely that one meeting of the Standards Board and Committees will be outside the United States.
