Topics covered in previous Symposia have included: The EMC regulatory framework, EMI measurements, EMC Virtual laboratories, Ambients at Open Area Test Sites, SAR measurements on mobile phones, Computer simulations in EMC, Mitigation of medical EMC problems, Modelling in EMC analysis of PCBs, EMI Control in buildings, TEM cell numerical modelling & measurement, EMC in University courses, EM signatures of ships, EMI reduction in power converters, 50 Hz magnetic field rejection, Optimised interpolation strategies for radiating structures, WLAN and Bluetooth devices and EMC, EMC Approvals in the Asia Pacific region, EMR from Mobile Phone Base Stations.
Papers will be published in a Symposium Record (hardcopy and CDROM) and IEEE Explore.
Proposed papers will be subject to review and acceptance by the organising committee. Intending authors should submit a notice of intention to submit a paper along with a synopsis of the paper by 5th March 2010, to franz-s@watri.org.au.

IEEE E-books and Archived Webinars
In response to one of the top ten most important Sections Congress recommendations in Quebec, Member and Geographic Activities (MGA) in partnership with IEEE-USA has formed an Ad Hoc committee on Globalization of Professional Activities (IEEE GPA). The IEEE GPA committee is represented by volunteers from all Regions and IEEE Staff. It is chartered to look into providing similar member benefits enjoyed in Regions 1-6 to members across all Regions. IEEE GPA has identified two existing products that can be extended as an immediate member benefit to Regions 7-10. A webpage on the IEEE-USA website has been recently launched to offer for free 4 e-book titles and access to archived webinars on a variety of topics to all IEEE Members. Check the free e-books and archived webinars out at: http://www.ieeeusa.org/careers/gpa/ The Career webinar series are career building strategies to guide members in their job search, career enhancement, salary scale determination, and understanding of ethical considerations in the workplace. These are very relevant topics affecting members in our current global environment. eBooks are downloadable portable document format (PDF) files. Check out the many titles available on career and policy issues. Some titles are available as free member downloads, and most are available at heavily discounted member rates. In our continuing efforts to better understand the professional needs of members outside the US, IEEE GPA welcomes your comments, ideas and suggestions on how we can help you with your professional development. Please send them to us at: s.grayson@ieee.org By the end of the year, the IEEE GPA Committee will present to the IEEE Board of Directors its report and actions to be implemented to meet this challenge of providing similar benefits of local relevance worldwide.

As this is the first time in a long time to produce a Bi-monthly newsletter, it is my pleasure to thank the members who have worked tirelessly to put the first issue out. It is therefore in order that I include some of the most important events and activities that have taken place in the section during the last 12 months.
