==How to Get Involved== | |||
The best way to prepare for becoming EUS VP External is to get involved in things related to the External Portfolio (duh!). | |||
== | To run for the position, it is recommended to be familiar with some of these: | ||
* Eng Games | |||
* MEC, QEC, CEC | |||
* QCESO (CREIQ) | |||
* CFES | |||
* Other engineering schools and societies in Quebec or Canada | |||
* General assemblies / council meetings in general | |||
* EUS groups, events and services | |||
Even though any VP External will learn a lot once they start their term, most elements are best learned by experiencing them rather than reading them from a handbook. For example, Eng Games has a very unique dynamic and culture that can be difficult to understand for someone who has never heard of or participated in them. A potential VP External should also be familiar with what the EUS has to offer (groups, events, services, positions, etc) since they will be the one representing the EUS to external groups and other schools. Finally, the VP External should have a good understanding of French and English to be able to participate and represent the EUS at QCESO and CFES meetings. | |||
In the past, a lot of VP Externals had previously held the position of External Director, although this is not an obligation. | |||
