IEEE Computer Society Launches Corporate Initiative
The IEEE Computer Society has launched an outreach campaign called
Raise Your Standards to raise awareness of the global organization.
Targeted at technology professionals and the corporations who hire
them, the Raise Your Standards campaign communicates how the society’s
products and services can help them grow.
The initiative’s message will be communicated via nine video vignettes on You Tube, MySpace and SecondLife, as well as via Raise Your Standards Web Page and a DVD distributed at conferences and tradeshows around the world.
“Whether you’re a hardware or a software engineer, in academia or
industry, or just trying to understand the gap between business and
technology, we are here to make your life a little easier,” said Susan
K. (Kathy) Land, the IEEE Computer Society’s 2009 president and
principal software systems engineer with MITRE Corp.
The Computer Society is offering human resources and training
professionals opportunities to partner and attract, develop and retain
top talent. The Computer Society also offers custom webinars and
podcasts that can be used as training vehicles in these cost-conscious
times.
