The idea for a local Control Systems & Instrumentation chapter was presented at November 2011 AGM for the IEEE Southern Alberta section. Subsequently, monthly meetings have been organized to promote the formation of a new chapter in Southern Alberta. The intent of such a chapter is to use the umbrella of the IEEE to:

• foster networking within the profession,
• advance the knowledge of the local technical community,
• bring together a wide breadth of knowledge across all aspects of our specialty,
• take advantage of local expertise within academia, industry and government,
• interact with the resources of the wider IEEE organization, and
• interact with other local activities of the IEEE and other technical organizations.
