has been a pleasure to serve you as the ITE District 6 Vice President and Secretary-Treasurer.
The last two years have gone by so quickly. I've truly enjoyed working with the
District and International officers, committee chairs, LAC's, and student chapters.
My involvement in ITE has helped me grow professionally, and it's my goal to mentor
and guide committee chairs and Section and Chapter leaders to become leaders of
ITE District 6. ITE Leadership

Leadership Priorities
My original campaign focused on four areas:
- Mentor and train younger members and students to meet future
transportation challenges.
- Support student initiatives programs
at the District, Section and Chapter levels.
- Attract more
members to District 6 meetings by keeping annual meetings affordable and expanding
technical programs and training to the membership.
- Expand
use of information technology to share transportation information and tools.
A
significant amount of work has been completed with the help and commitment of
District 6 volunteers in these areas. The District 6 mentoring program has grown
over the past two years and matched over 50 mentors and mentees. The District
has established an Endowment Fund for Student Initiatives. The District has expanded
the use of the web to provide on-line registration for District 6 Annual Meetings
and on-line member surveys to help guide the District's leadership. Next
year, my priorities will be focused to: - Expand
and enhance the District 6 mentoring program and professional development for
our members. Attract emerging professionals to District 6 Annual meetings and
activities.
- Mentor committee chairs and Section and Chapter
leaders to become leaders of ITE District 6.
- Continue to
support successful student programs and chapter research opportunities to attract
the best students to the profession.
- Keep annual meetings
affordable and expand technical programs and training.
- Expand
use of information technology including e-learning and e-publishing opportunities.
Provide electronic voting to the membership.
I
look forward to your continued support and opportunity to serve ITE District
6 as President. If you have any comments or ideas, then please contact me at rosales@pbworld.com
