IEEE Canada is the Canadian arm (as Region 7) of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) as well as the constituent society of the Engineering Institute of Canada (EIC) for the technical fields of electrical, electronics, and computer engineering. Canadian IEEE members pay dues and assessments which partially pay for the services provided by IEEE Canada, IEEE, and EIC. The sale of products and services to members, non-members, and organizations provides significant additional income. While both organizations provide educational services and products, EIC focuses on the “professional” component while IEEE provides “technical” information through its member societies. You can learn more about EIC and about the IEEE . The President of IEEE Canada serves on the EIC council as a voting member, as well as being the IEEE Region 7 Director and a voting member of both the IEEE Board of Directors and the IEEE Member Geographic Area Board. The President chairs the Board of Directors which is the principal governing body of IEEE Canada. The Section Chairs form a majority of the voting membership of the Board. Canadian IEEE members vote on alternate years for the President-Elect. Section members, likewise, vote for their section chair. 25-Year Snapshot of IEEE Canada Achievements IEEE Canada has a long, rich history of achievement.
