IEEE Sections Congress (SG) is a flagship event hosted by IEEE that brings together the grassroots leadership of IEEE from every member country so that they can share ideas, concerns & solutions. Read More.

IEEE SC is unable to hold the face to face Sections Congress this year to ensure the health and safety of all of our volunteers, and looks forward to seeing all of you in 2023 for the next face to face Sections Congress! In an effort to continue forward with the recommendation process for this year, the MGA Board of Directors approved conducting the 2020 Recommendation Process virtually. IEEE SC will be evaluating additional virtual events to be held throughout the year to provide training opportunities. Information regarding the Virtual Recommendation Process and additional Virtual Training Opportunities will be posted on the respective website, social media, and sent out via email as it becomes available. Please do not hesitate to reach out with any further questions or concerns via sc-information@ieee.org!
