The current security model automatically allows use of the tools by any volunteer who appears in the Geographic Units section of the IEEE Corporate Roster.  Volunteers can create meetings, WebInABox sites, run elections, etc. Visit the Automatic Access Information page for more detailed information on who can access the different vTools applications.  Members, and in many cases, the general public can view meeting and event  information, visit WebInABox sites, etc…

To verify who is listed on the section roster please see this page: https://www.ieee.org/rosters (access is limited to current officers).   Please note that per vTools team request, IEEE now records more positions for Chapter and Affinity Group officers: Chair, Vice Chair, Secretary, Treasurer.  New officers can be reported here: https://www.ieee.org/societies_communities/geo_activities/required_reporting/officer_forms.html.  In addition, Sections can now report a vTools coordinator position (see  grade restrictions below).

Please note that according to IEEE Bylaws (https://www.ieee.org/content/dam/ieee-org/ieee/web/org/about/corporate/ieee-constitution-and-bylaws.pdf) all officers (with exception of webmaster and newsletter editor) shall be IEEE members in Graduate Student Member, Member, Senior Member or Fellow grade.
