Why Do We Have Sections? Ideal vehicles for informative local technical &
professional meetings and for networking. Meetings are one of the most visible &
valuable ways in which Sections, Chapters, and Affinity Groups serve their members.
Successful meetings help to achieve the goals of education & professional advancement that are basic to all IEEE Units.
Provides a uniform way to manage IEEE business & maintain a healthy environment for membership retention and growth.
