A Young Professionals volunteer requires knowledge about the structure of the various relevant committees and OUs in his or her Society/Council and IEEE.
1. Organizational structure of IEEE Young Professionals Committee
The IEEE Young Professionals committee is a committee of IEEE, which has been assigned for administrative purposes to the MGA Board. This does not mean that the committee is not important or relevant to Societies/Councils. On the contrary, the linkage is especially strong with Societies/Councils. One OU, however, must administer the committee, and the value of the Young Professionals spans the full IEEE membership.
