Welcome
The
Technology
Management Council (TMC) has been formed in 2007 as a development of
the
Engineering Management Society (EMS). Chapters which were EMS Chapters
in 2007, including the Ottawa EMS Chapter, are now TMC
Chapters with the same officers
or officers newly elected based on their bylaws.
As
of January 2008, the Ottawa
TMC Chapter became the Technology Management Council / Professional
Communication Society Joint Chapter, TMC/PCS Joint Chapter. On March
2008, John Grefford asked
IEEE TMC and related societies to add the Ottawa Society on
Social Impact of Technology (SSIT) Chapter
to the Ottawa
TMC/PCS Joint Chapter. Ferial
El-Hawary,
R7 Director, Gus Gaynor, President of the TMC, Mark
Haselkorn, President of the PCS, Janet
Rochester, President of the SSIT, and
IEEE Member and Geographic Activities (MGA formerly RAB) have approved
to make
this change to the IEEE Ottawa Section
Technology
Management Council, Professional Communication Society, and Society on
Social Implications of Technology Joint Chapter, TMC/PCS/SSIT Joint
Chapter (IEEE Ottawa Section Joint Chapter TM14/PC26/SIT30).
The
IEEE Ottawa Section welcomed this change.

Overview:
The Humanitarian Technology Challenge (HTC) is a three year partnership
between the IEEE and the United Nations Foundation. It is the first
time that a major humanitarian organization and a major technology
association have formed an up-front, collaborative
relationship, to: Bring a more systematic approach to applying
technology to solve world problems; Identify three challenges and drive
solutions that are implementable and sustainable; Formulate solutions
through a combination of workshops and the use of online collaboration
tool(s). Join us to learn more about it and to join in the effort (http://www.ieeehtc.org/).
