The Society of Broadcast Engineers has launched its annual membership drive, with the theme “Shape the Future.”
It’s urging current members to encourage colleagues to join the society. Last year the campaign recruited 49 people.
The campaign runs to the end of May.
“As a recruiting incentive to members, the SBE asks for prize donations from SBE sustaining member companies,” it said in the announcement.
“In addition, the recruiter will earn $5 per new member (up to $25) off his or her 2027 membership dues.”
Several SBE Sustaining Member companies plus the society itself are providing prizes including shirts, hats and broadcast equipment. Those are include BSW, Dielectric, GatesAir, Heartland Video Systems, LBA Group, SCMS, Telos Alliance and Time Base Consoles.
The SBE donates logo items, a copy of CertPreview and a free Webinars by SBE registration.
The society’s current membership across radio and TV is approximately 4,000 members in 117 chapters in the United States, Hong Kong and Eastern Europe. There are members in more than 25 other countries.
The website has details about the recruitment effort.
