Senior Member Nominations Sought
A goal of our Region is to sponsor as many Senior Members as possible. I am asking your help. The IEEE criteria for Senior Member status is ten years of professional practice including five years of significant performance, and references. (See the nominator letter and application form for clarification on the IEEE website.)

If you know an IEEE member who qualifies for Senior Membership, I would like you to nominate him or her by forwarding their nomination to one of the Houston Section Excom members. If you qualify and are not a senior member please reply to one of the Section Excom members. If you are retired and have met the criteria at one time, let's get you nominated.  Section meetings are the best networking tool to achieve Senior membership.

As an alternative process, you can direct the prospective Senior Member to one of the Houston Section Excom Members.  We have a list of several Fellows and Senior Members which we can use for references. The Section will nominate all those qualified who provide a resume and significant  performance vita.

Senior Membership in IEEE promotes the value of membership and enhances the status of the member. The is an achievement award lets honor our = deserving members.

Check out the Job Assistance Pages
We have expanded our Job Assistance area and now offer opportunities for Members to post their Job Seeking information.  In addition, companies looking for employees can list their opportunities here and Search Companies, which specialize in placing Engineering-related personnel, can list their contact information so members can do research before committing.

This is another effort to provide benefits to our members.  Click Here or the Employment Assistance tab on the top menu for more details.


Basler Electric Publishes Revised Generator Protection Application Guide -- FREE
The guide was revised to bring it up-to-date with industry changes in generator application. It is now designed to reflect modern relay practices that have evolved in the era of microprocessor-based multifunction relaying and adds a number of new topics.

Though Basler relays are mentioned, the Guide still maintains a non-commercial approach in its presentation.

The new version of the guide will be mailed to all registered guide holders.  You can also download a copy now for a sneak preview or if you are not a registered guide holder.
