  1. EAB Course Proposal Analysis Criteria • How well defined is the proposed course? • Proposed content is well organized and defined – no glaring ambiguities or contradictions with any existing courseware or reference materials – particularly SWEBOK • Proposed course objectives are well organized, measureable, relevant and appropriate to the course and subject area • How mature is the course proposal? • Are the content topics clear and well organized? • Do the proposed course topics appear to satisfy the stated objectives? • Do the proposed topics form a logical and rational progression of thought? • Are there any implications for building and offering this course that need to be considered beyond the content itself? • How large and well-delineated is the subject area? • Is this a widely known and accepted subject area with a broad appeal? • Is this a new and emerging field with undetermined support or uncertain appeal? • Is this a new and emerging field that is expected by authoritative sources to be a major area of study in the near future? • Are there any current internal IEEE or IEEE CS elements supporting this effort? If so, who or what is in support? • To what extent can the CS add value to this proposal, and are any internal elements already pursuing this idea? • What would be the cost to the CS for supporting this proposal, and what would be the anticipated ROI? • Is there a market for the proposed course? If so – has that market been clearly defined? • To what extent has the originator performed a “needs analysis” to establish acceptability in the market? • To what extent has the target audience been defined?

  2. EAB Course Proposal Analysis Criteria (continued) • Is the nature of the subject such that the proposed course will require frequent revision and update? If so, how is it proposed that this be accomplished? • Will the proposed course require on-going financial support to stay current? • If so, has the originator provided any funding sources other than the CS? • Do those sources (where applicable) seem reliable, and to what extent have they agreed to provide on-going support? • Is there a community of technically competent volunteer SMEs willing and able to provide support? • Are there any external sources of developmental funding? If so – who are they and what is the extent of their proposed support?

  3. Idea Proposal Form (IPF) 3. Please provide an overview of the principle topics your proposed course will cover in their order of appearance: 4. List any key words that could be associated with the proposed course:
