Call for SWENextEd Workgroup Volunteers

SWENextEd is a Work Group on SWE’s Outreach Committee.  It is focused on providing information and resources to SWE’s K-12 Educator Members.  

We know that educators play an important role in helping us promote engineering to their students.

The SWENextEd Work Group is excited to announce some great volunteer opportunities for four new sub-workgroup volunteers to help lead our key newsletter sustainability needs. 

The sub-workgroup committees will be dedicated to the generation of critical newsletter content subsections. See the attached file for details about each volunteer position.

As sub-workgroup members you will be responsible for building society media and resources in multiple avenues, allowing us to plan ahead and coordinate innovative ideas deep into the threads of the society. 

With the help of our sub-workgroup members, the newsletter editor would be able to generate regular and consistent newsletters.

The amount of time required for each role is estimated in the attached.  As we ramp up the pull list, more work may be required in the first few months and then level out as we build the backlog. 

The only requirement is that you must be a SWE member in good standing (i.e. dues paid).

If interested in any of the attached positions, please send an email to SWENextEd@swe.org  by February 10th, stating which position you are interested and why (just a brief sentence or two is all that is needed).  We will be reviewing the information from all of the interested members and looking for the best fit for the positions.  We will let you know as soon as we've made our selections.

The SWENextEd Workgroup leads are Sadaf Qazi and Debra K and can be reached at SWENextEd@swe.org if you have any questions.
