Workshop for Practicing Engineers
Why Are Technical Workshops Important for Practicing Engineers? Help develop technical skills in a specific topic to meet the employer's demand or need for job change. Are topics that cannot be addressed in an hour. At least a day is needed to provide the useful info. Provide CEU/PDH for an engineer in a short time Keep members up-to-date in specific technical topics.
Organize One Workshop in 2012 R 4 will support up to $3 K per section – It is preferred that: § Industry Involvement § Time be allocated for membership promotion § Survey to be made on interest of attending members at the end of the workshop. § Good planning § Registration fee substantially be low for members than non-members 01 -Nov-20
