Online Judging Tool for Scholarships by Atlanta Chapter
To maximize participation in judging our chapter¿s
scholarship applications, AFCEA-Atlanta built a tool on the
chapter¿s portal for viewing and submitting judging scores.
Judges were provided with the username and password to access
the tool. Once in the tool, judges could view each
application package and then submit their judging sheet,
including their name and then rank ordering the top 8
nominations. This enabled a large group of judges (approx
15-20) to grade the applications when convenient for them and
without the challenges of providing judging packages via
hardcopy or email as well as protecting the privacy data in
these packages. This approach has worked out very well for
our chapter.

Courses for Industry Members by Atlanta Chapter
In 2005-2006, AFCEA-Atlanta recognized a need to educate
industry partners on working with the military. The chapter
created a Vice President, Education to concentrate on
initiating free programs and making the arrangements needed
to serve its membership in this arena. The program has
continued and expanded during the four years since its
inception. Programs have included Army/government
contracting, DoD 101, introduction to AFCEA for new members,
as well as technical classes such as data center design and
computer/internet security. Most, but not all, of the
instructors are volunteers from the Chapter¿s membership.
The classes last an hour and are generally held prior to the
monthly luncheons. They have been a big draw for small
business in the Atlanta area and have resulted in a large
increase in our corporate membership.

Expand Your Board of Directors by Atlanta Chapter
To encourage active participation in our chapter, the Atlanta
chapter encourages members interested in becoming more active
in our chapter to join our board of directors. Currently
our board of directors includes 38 members, almost 10 percent
of our membership. This provides fresh ideas to our chapter
leadership, volunteers to lead or assist in various events
and builds our core of active members. In addition, these
members also get the added benefit of a chapter position,
which earns them praise from their employers and good resume
material too. It¿s a win-win for all.
