Note To Region 4 ExCom Members

Region ExCom members that are presenting at upcoming ExCom meetings should upload their presentations to the Region 4 Forum (IEEE Online Community) . Upload instructions are in that "Files" folder.

Note: If you are having problems viewing the Region4 Online Community, please ask your IT department to unblock the following servers:: cdn.sixent.com/_inc/styles/sixent_1_v164.css; cdn.sixent.com/_inc/js/sixent_v171.gz.js; cdn.sixent.com/_inc/images/icons/others/Dashboard_32x32.png
Or if they can add a rule to unblock anything under cdn.sixent.com/_inc then that should do the trick. (Thanks to Scott Lytle at SEM Section for these instructions.)
If you forget your IEEE login and password, you can get IEEE password recovery at www.ieee.org/myieee and click on "Access" then "Forgot My Password".

ExCom Committee Chairs that have updates to this web site should submit their updates on the Region 4 Forum Online Community. I will do updates once per week. The deadline for the weekly update is 12am midnight Saturday Central Time. DO NOT email your requests to me. Place your request in a file such as PDF, text file, DOC file, ODF file, ZIP file, etc. (please do not post newer format docx or xlsx files, only use the older MS 2000/XP format). If you have several files, bundle them into a ZIP file. Then, upload your file by following the instructions on the requests page.

Region 4 Mission Statement

Represent IEEE throughout our geographic area by providing excellent support to all sections, subsections, chapters and Student Chapters so they may in turn provide value to IEEE members.
