Chapter Formation Process
The chapter formation will be processed by IEEE MGA. A description of the process is available at IEEE Geographic Unit Formation Policies and Petitions. For more detailed information about the chapter formation process, please read the following step-by-step description. Please note, the links are related to a previous version of the IEEE website so may not be applicable.
To start a chapter formation the Online Petition Form should be submitted here – IEEE Geographic Unit Petition Application. As the Online Petition Form will not be processed by IAS, but by IEEE MGA, all queries related to the petition should be sent to IEEE MGA.

Chapter Reporting
Both technical and SB chapters may provide reports in vTools about:
- chapter activity
- status of chapter officers
- changes in the status of chapter officers, especially in electing a new chapter chair
If you are not familiar in vTools reporting, please:
- collect web information by search word “vtools reporting”
- watch the self explanatory video Technical Chapter and SB Chapter Reporting via vTools
- contact the IAS CMD Chapters and Membership Committee Chair for assistance
How to Check the Correctness of Status of the Chapter Roster?
1. The chapter officer status i.e. name and email address of the chair and of other chapter officers are listed in IEEE Organization Roster.This roster corresponds to the latest vTools report.
2. Since vTools doesn’t report about the chapter roster the Societies, we should set-up an own chapter roster. This is the basis of the mailing roster of CMD. The CMD chapter roster is available in our chapter locator map. This list corresponds to the latest report to IAS CMD.
3. Changes in chapter officer status shuld be reported concurrently via vTools to IEEE MGA and via email to IAS CMD.
