Technical Expert Resources
The purpose of the IEEE Public Visibility Initiative is to increase awareness, understanding, and appreciation of how engineering, computing, and technology benefit humanity, and to promote the visibility of engineering, computing, and IEEE technical professionals who carry out this work.
An integral part of the program is globally positioning IEEE members to the media as technical experts (TEs), where they serve as spokespeople and can share their technical expertise and insight on technology topics.
Below is some information about becoming a technical expert and participating in the IEEE Public Visibility Initiative.
How do I apply to be a technical expert?
If you are interested in becoming a technical expert and participating in the program, fill out a Technical Expert submission form. You will then be contacted to discuss your background and expertise to determine how you might help contribute to the program.
