TTTC’s goals<\/b> are to contribute to its members’ professional development and advancement, to help them solve engineering problems in electronic test, and to help advance the state-of-the art. All TTTC activities are led by volunteer members.<\/p>\n
Membership<\/b> in TTTC is open to all individuals interested in test engineering at a professional level. There are NO dues<\/b> for TTTC membership and noparent-organization membership requirements; however, there are substantial reductions in fees for TTTC-sponsored meetings and tutorials for members of IEEE and\/or IEEE Computer Society. (IEEE and IEEE\/CS do have member fees.)<\/p>\n
In addition to the benefits of personal association with other test professionals and the opportunity to serve on a wide range of committees, TTTC members receive TTTC Newsletters<\/b> and announcements. TTTC sponsors a numberof Technical Activity Committees<\/b> that address emerging test technologytopics. These TACs guide a wide range of activities in their topic areas, including standards activities and technical meetings.<\/p>\n
Under TAC guidance, TTTC initiates, nurtures and encourages new test standards<\/b>. TTTC-initiated groups have produced numerous IEEE standards, including the 1149 series used throughout the industry. TTTC also sponsorsseveral well-known conferences<\/b> and symposia<\/b> and holds numerous regional and topical workshops<\/b>. In addition to spreading technical knowledge abouttest, TTTC meetings help advance the state-of-the-art. TTTC also sponsors tutorials on current and emerging test topics in conjunction with its largermeetings.<\/p>\n
