TISP Week
The TISP week is a program to conduct teacher training workshops in multiple Sections and Regions within a span of one or two weeks.
Teacher In-Service Program (TISP) is a professional development workshop for school teachers to help them bring exciting hands-on activities to their classroom.

This will showcase the incredible work being done by our education activities volunteers, train teachers to deliver Inquiry Based Science Education sessions and will also help train more volunteers in the local sections. This event will also help our local volunteers deliver a public service through training teachers.
We plan to conduct workshops in as many sections as possible and would like to invite your Section to organize a TISP workshop for school teachers during this TISP week.
The following rules will apply for organizing a workshop as part of the TISP week:
- A minimum of 30 school teachers will be trained.
- The event will a minimum of one or a maximum of two days long.
- The event dates will fall within the TISP week dates.
- As our funds are limited, we would like to request the local Section to fund the organization of the event. EAB can only fund the lesson plan materials* for the workshop and would be grateful if the Section can fund the rest of the local costs of venue, etc. The funding amount is up to USD 250 per workshop and it will be reimbursed after submitting the reimbursement form.
- A member of the local organizing committee will participate in monthly TISP week organizing committee online calls.
We will help your local organizing committee plan an effective agenda for the workshop.
There are lots of information and TISP resources in our website, http://tispweek.ieee.org which I encourage you to visit.

*Lesson plan materials are the materials described in the lesson plan’s pdf you will implement in the workshop plus the printouts of the pdf, student worksheet and educator feedback forms. Any other expense (e.g traveling, posters, promotional materials, coffee break, lunches, gifts etc) is not covered.
Proposals on new educational programs are received, for each educational level (pre-university, university, continuing education). The proposal is evaluated by a judging committee and a Seed Funding Prize is given to the winner of each educational level.
PEA Speakers program is a platform through which distinguished and experienced professionals can share their valuable knowledge in PEAsC’s fields of interest to IEEE Region 8 members and help them by providing guidance on developing useful skills for their professional life.
The program requires sections to organize activities aimed at promoting engineering to pre-university pupils, teachers, and parents.
Sections are called to organize events that promote Entrepreneurship during Global Entrepreneurship Week (NOVEMBER 18–24, 2019) where talks will be given by CEOs and startuppers, informing participants how to run a business, followed by workshops and hands-on activities.
