Volunteer Resources

IEEE Volunteer Expense Reimbursement System (Concur)—see details

As part of an effort to carve out a well-deserved space in the IEEE digital presence for volunteers, each major Board will have a space devoted to them, with cross-linkages to other volunteer-only content across the organization. Find the content you need to access for your work as an IEEE volunteer. This includes meetings, agendas, resources, and other crucial information related to your role.

Benefits include:

  • Flexibility to pilot new ideas, innovate, personalize, and evolve the volunteer web presence
  • A robust search to find and access content across each Board, crawling all volunteer content
  • Removal of clutter and unrelated content, creating a dedicated space for volunteers
  • Role-based access to shared resources across several Boards, centralizing volunteer resources in a one-stop-shop

General resources that pertain to most IEEE volunteer roles, as well as links to other resource collections, are on this page.

IEEE Volunteer Education

It is important that those who act on behalf of IEEE, both volunteers and staff, are aware of IEEE's legal obligations and requirements under applicable law.

To provide you with information on compliance learning, the IEEE Legal & Compliance team has developed the material below, which will help to explain why it is necessary, who is required to take it, and how you can access the IEEE Volunteer Compliance Training Site.

  • Frequently Asked Questions (PDF, 141 KB)
  • IEEE Support Center
  • How to get started with the new site (PDF, 235 KB)
  • Access to the ILN Volunteer Compliance Training site (login required)

In addition to compliance learning, IEEE also provides additional resources for volunteers based on role and operating unit.

  • IEEE Center for Leadership Excellence
  • IEEE TA Volunteer Education
  • IEEE Conference Education Program
  • IEEE SA Training + Development
  • IEEE NextGen Experience Training
    • The system is available to those who are authorized to act on financials and contracts.
