Activity 1 In your groups, introduce your AG to the others, based on the worksheet you filled in previously.

MGA Operations Manual Section 9.9 -5 pages long ➡ AGs officers should be at least: chair, vice-chair, secretary and treasurer (secretary and treasurer can be merged in just one position) ➡ The committee members can be of any IEEE membership grade EXCEPT FOR STUDENTS ➡ Committee members are elected every 1-2 years ➡ You can hold the same position for only 4 years consecutively, and 6 years in total 3

How to run elections Technically….you need: ➡ Nomination committee and a tellers committee Election 6 months 6 weeks 2 weeks ends before before before Release - Nominations close; Voting ballots Call for Nominations NC selects 2-3 sent to members candidates - Additional nominations via petition can be made 4

Activities At least 2 group-interest meetings every year The meetings must be reported at least once a year Meetings contribute to calculating the AG rebate and Activity bonus (if applicable) If an AG fails to do this: –after one year with less than 2 activities the group: automatically placed on probation; will last for 3 consecutive years (no matter what you do) –being under probation suspends your rights to the rebate –AG will be dissolved automatically is situation does not improve. 5

Unlocking the magic of vTools and SAMIEE Task 1: vTools - demonstrate how to report AG officer Task 2: vTools - demonstrate how to report activities (L31 reports) 6
