The Industry Advisory Council (IAC) provides the ABET Board of Directors with valuable perspectives on ABET's accreditation programs and procedures. ABET has charged the IAC to:
- provide industry and government viewpoints on accreditation,
- review proposed changes in ABET programs and policies, and
- stimulate industrial firms' involvement in ABET's work.
For 2011, the IAC was comprised of 14 at-large industry members, the ABET President, the ABET President-Elect, and the ABET Executive Director.
