Approval Process for SIGCSE Support of Non-SIGCSE Events
Version: September 18, 2004
ACM SIGCSE will lend its name to non-SIGCSE events that are fully sponsored
by other non-profit organizations. To be approved, the event(s) must be
relevant to SIGCSE and provide some sort of benefit to SIGCSE members.
SIGCSE will not share in the direct financial support, benefit, or risk
of the event.
If the SIGCSE Board approves support, events may include the SIGCSE logo and
the following phrase on their notices:
“In Cooperation with the ACM Special Interest Group on
Computer Science Education (SIGCSE).”
A representative of the non-SIGCSE event(s) should initiate this process several
months in advance of the event(s). The recommended procedure is as follows:
- Contact the SIGCSE chair at
<chair@sigcse.org>
with a brief proposal for SIGCSE cooperation for the event(s). The proposal
should describe:
- The event(s).
- The dates and location(s).
- The primary sponsor(s).
- How the event(s) will be financed.
- The anticipated audience.
- The URL(s) if available.
- If there is a history of past cooperation, give the years and
event titles.
- Include a brief explanation of the mutual benefit of having SIGCSE
support for the event(s).
- The SIGCSE Chair will bring the proposal before the SIGCSE Board to
discuss the request and make a determination. The decision of the Board
is final.
- If given the go-ahead by the SIGCSE Chair, a representative of the
non-SIGCSE event(s) must submit to ACM headquarters the forms and other
paperwork described the ACM policy at http://www.acm.org/sig_volunteer_info/conference_manual/1-3INCOP.HTM.
