Member-Get-a-Member Program

The membership benefit that pays. No one knows how beneficial IEEE membership is to technical and career development better than other IEEE and IEEE Photonics Members. Consider sharing your membership experience and get rewarded for doing so. Through the IEEE Member-Get-a-Member program, IEEE rewards your efforts in recruiting new members.

For each new member you recruit during the membership year, you earn an award that can be used toward IEEE dues, IEEE Society fees, or the purchase of books and publications (excludes merchandise and other products.) Your local Section can also benefit by your participation in the MGM program.
