Nominate A Senior Member Initiative

GOAL
As part of IEEE's Senior Member Program, this program calls on Section and Society members to work together as a group to identify and nominate qualified Members for Senior Member grade. This initiative aims to:

SENIOR MEMBER NOMINATION LETTER
In an effort to facilitate and assist Sections and Societies in this initiative,  a standard letter is available that can be used by nominators to provide information about the Senior Member application and nomination process. The Senior Member Nomination Letter is an electronic document that can be customized and forwarded as an email attachment to the prospective nominee.

DEADLINE
To qualify for the 2006 Nominate A Senior Member Initiative, completed Senior Member application and reference forms must be received at IEEE no later than 10 November 2006.

REWARD STRUCTURE AND ADMINISTRATION

1. Section/Society Bonus:  Nominating Sections and Societies who nominate at least five successful new Senior Members will be awarded US $10 for each Senior Member they nominate who is approved for elevation to Senior Member in 2005.  As a result, no rebate will be awarded if it is for less than US $50. To be credited as the nominating entity, the name of the Section or Society must be entered in the nominations portion of the application form. There can only be one nominating entity for each elevation. If there is no entity nominator listed, none will be credited and none can be added retroactively. If the nominating entity listed is a Subsection or a combined entity, the incentive will be awarded to the Section the Subsection belongs to or to the first entity cited.  

Rewards will be tracked on an ongoing basis for all applications received by 10 November 2006 and successfully approved by the Admission and Advancement Committee. The incentive reward payments to the successful nominating Sections and Societies will be paid out in early 2007 or in conjunction with the Section Rebate Program.

2. Senior Member Plaque:  Since January 1999, all newly elevated Senior Members have received an engraved Senior Member plaque. The plaque is sent within six to eight weeks after elevation. This plaque can be proudly displayed for colleagues, clients and employers to see.

3. $25.00 Coupon:  IEEE will recognize all newly elevated Senior Members with a coupon worth up to $25.00.  This coupon can be used to join one new IEEE Society. The coupon expires on 31 December 2006.
