In 2024 we will offer ‘Officer Training’ to our ‘newly’ elected AND veteran officers and volunteers; as well as any IEEE member, at any grade level or position. Our wish is to help all gain a fuller awareness of the communication and management skills used within the IEEE, how they function and how to employ them both as IEEE officers, and in your everyday work and life. These are referred to as ‘soft skills’ in that they are not based on the physical principles we all learned as we worked toward our engineering degrees. They are psychological, organizational, interpersonal and their training requires that they be ‘learned’ in two associated ways.The first part is an appreciation of the principles and techniques involved. That is usually part of a class or study covering the basics (theory) of the method. That part we intend to offer in the form of ‘on-line’ classes and reference study material.The second part requires putting the ‘theory’ into active practice. We often liken this to learning a sport, such as playing a game of tennis. No amount of ‘book study’ can teach you how it feels to swing a racket, or how to know when your swing connects perfectly, and the ball goes exactly where you intended. Those elements of a skill only come with practice!Classes:As an introduction to the ‘theory’ portion of these skills, we will offer a set of virtual classes supported by study materials available through the (https://r4.ieee.org/sem/) and the (https://ieee.learningpool.com/) The virtual classes will begin in the 2nd week of January 2024 and conclude end of February of that year. Each class will be conducted via WebEx/Zoom as an overview’ of the topic ‘de jour’ and a discussion or Q&A session to answer questions and clarify issues. (See the agenda below:)Note: Space for these classes is not like outer space, it is limited, so you must register to receive the necessary codes and passwords to attend.Co-sponsored by: Kimball WilliamsSpeaker(s): Sharan KalwaniAgenda: Day Date General Topic/Theme Primary Focus Areas covered DurationSat 1/13/2024 vTools Communications Volunteer tools/resources for the Primary Teams 2 HrsSat 1/20/2024 Collabratec Communications Primary & Extended Team 2 HrsSat 1/27/2024 Leadership Chair Chair Duties / Responsibilities 2 HrsSat 2/3/2024 Leadership V-Chair Vice-Chair Duties & Responsibilities 2 HrsSat 2/10/2024 Leadership Secretary Secretary Duties & Responsibilities 2 HrsSat 2/17/2024 Leadership Treasurer Treasurer Duties & Responsibilities 2 HrsSat 2/24/2024 Leadership Extended Team IEEE code of Ethics (updated) 2 HrsVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/382581

CIS-IEEENational Engineers Children's DaySaturday, February 24, 202410:00 am - 3:00 pmThe Children's Museum of Indianapolis(http://www.cis-ieee.org/engineersday/volunteer.asp)National Engineers Week will be celebrated from February 18-24, 2024. This year's theme - Welcome to the Future! - is about celebrating today's achievements and paving the way for a brighter and more diverse future in engineering.Engineers Day at The Children's Museum of Indianapolis will be held on Saturday, February 24, 2024, from 10:00 - 3:00. Volunteers are needed to interact with guests and get children excited about Engineering as a career choice. Volunteers will be stationed throughout the Museum to help guests perform simple activities that apply basic engineering principles as well as talk about engineering and answer any questions children may have.(http://www.cis-ieee.org/engineersday/volunteer.asp) for more information and to volunteer.*Please note that all volunteers will need to fill out a form authorizing The Children's Museum of Indianapolis to perform a limited background check. If your employer conducts a background as a requirment for employment, then a letter from your HR indicating that can be used. This is the Children's Museum's preferred method for this year.*** Please contact (mailto:[email protected]?Subject=Engineers Day) if your company would like to have a table with an activity or if you have ideas for a simple engineering activity.Bldg: The Children's Museum of Indianapolis, 3000 North Meridian Street, Indianapolis, Indiana, United States, 46208

QC Elite Robotics Team 648 competes annually to inspire its Quad Cities high school participants to be future engineers and scientists. Each January, teams across the country receive a robot kit, and must design and build a robot over the next two months to compete against robots from other teams in the region, leading to the international competition. Each year’s contest is new, requiring distinctive robot behaviors. QC Elite has completed its 2024 robot design and build. The team will be testing the new robot Saturday, Feb 24, as the dates for competition approach. This year’s team includes about 15 students and engineer advisors. This meeting will be informal, watching students put the finishing touches on the robot. The IEEE St. Ambrose University Student Branch is treating the team to pizza for lunch. Feel welcome to bring along family members or a young aspiring scientist or engineer. The team will display and explain the mechanical, electrical, and programming features of this year’s robot that distinguish it from past competitions. Co-sponsored by: John Johnson Agenda: 11:15-Noon Arrival and informal observation of team building/testing activity Noon-12:30 Lunch - Assorted Pizza, Chips, Cookies, Soft Drinks/Lemonade/Water 12:30-1:00 Brief presentation on this year’s design and build South Park Mall, 4500 16th Street, Moline, Illinois, United States, 61265
