TAC (EWB-USA)

The Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) of EWB-USA is a group of volunteer professionals who meet once a month to review and approve the technical, cultural and health aspects of a project prior to any traveling.  All international projects involving travel must go through TAC.  Generally you must submit site assessment proposals ~1 month prior and implementation proposals ~2 months prior.  The TAC submission deadlines are ~ 3^rd Sunday of every month.   All submissions should cc the projects coordinator (bogle [at] uiuc [dot] edu) and be preferably submitted in advance.

TAC (EWB-CPC)

The Chicago Professional Chapter of EWB is also available to review technical aspects of our projects.  Their meetings are the last Tuesday of the month.  Questions and updates can be sent to them by contacting the EWB-UIUC projects coordinator (bogle [at] uiuc [dot] edu).  This is an especially appropriate resource for non-traveling and local projects.  For more info on EWB-CPC: see http://ewb-chicago.org/

More project-specific procedures are available from EWB-CPC.
