| Benefits of being
an ESDA volunteer |
| According to Vermillion, “The real
reward is the long-term association with dedicated individuals who are
interested in developing ESD Association Standards and Certification Programs
to serve as tools in combating ESD issues throughout various industries.
It is extremely rewarding seeing a document such as ANSI/ESD S541-2003
being issued after many hours of contributions by the working group chairman
and the team members. The personal friendships that have been developed
with ESDA members as a result of being a member of the ESDA Standards
Committee and some of the finest people in industry are well represented
within the group.” |
