The membership benefit that pays.
No one knows how beneficial IEEE membership is to technical and career development better than IEEE members.
Consider sharing your IEEE membership experience and get rewarded for doing so. Through the Member-Get-a-Member program, IEEE rewards your efforts in recruiting new members. Your local IEEE Section can also benefit.
For each new member you recruit, you earn an award which can be used toward IEEE dues, IEEE Society fees or the purchase of IEEE products and services. During the 2011 membership year (16 August 2010 through 15 August 2011), the IEEE MGM Program offers the following award schedule to members who recruit other individuals into IEEE membership.
Professional Members can earn:
Student Members can earn:
Your local section can also benefit by your participation in the MGM program.
Regional awards: The top five recruiters in each IEEE geographic region will earn membership development awards for their Section, to help underwrite the sections’ local programs and activities. Within each region, five awards will be given to the recruiters' section:
Overall IEEE award: The top recruiter in IEEE earns an additional US$500 award for his/her Section.
Additional rules apply to Section awards.
*Special note on the purchase and use of IEEE Merchandise eCertificates: The IEEE merchandise site is operated and maintained by a third party and not by IEEE. IEEE merchandise eCertificates are available in denominations of US$5, $10, $25 and $50 and are valid for use only at the IEEE Merchandise site. eCertificates are non-refundable and are valid for one year from the date of issue. If you wish to redeem all or part of your MGM award for IEEE merchandise eCertificates, you must do this through the IEEE Contact Center. They will place your order for the eCertificates, and you will receive them via e-mail within two weeks. A valid e-mail address is required. Before you choose to order or redeem your eCertificates at the IEEE Merchandise site, be sure to review the site’s shipping rates and policies – in certain countries shipping rates may be higher. If your order total, including shipping, is more than the amount of your eCertificate, you will be responsible for the balance due.
All members receive four referral cards that are personalized with their name and member number in their acknowledgement package when they join or renew each year. If you need more cards, you may download this PDF template that can be printed as is, or on Avery business card style templates. This is a fillable form where you can enter in your name and member number, save the file locally, and reprint as needed.
