IEEE

The Institute of Environmental Sciences and Technology (IEST) specializes in accelerated test methods; laboratory facilities and instrumentation necessary for field measurements, product reliability growth, demonstration and durability testing. IEST supports the technology development related to environmental test controls and methodologies; environmental stress screening; Highly Accelerated Limit (Life) Testing (HALT/HASS); and is the owner of MIL-STD-810. It is one of the founding societies for RAMS with emphasis on all aspects of environmental testing for product evaluation. Find out more at http://www.iest.org/.

IEST

IISE is the leading provider of cutting-edge industrial and systems engineering continuing education and a decades-long supporter of the Annual Reliability and Maintainability Symposium. It is a leading source of productivity improvement information via publications and live events. Member benefits include a magazine, professional development programs, an online career center, social networks, industry- and discipline-specific societies and divisions, such as the Quality Control & Reliability Division, chapters, and affinity programs.

IISE

The Annual Reliability and Maintainability Symposium (RAMS®) is one of the most comprehensive gatherings of R&M professionals held today. Attendance at the symposium is a unique opportunity for the System Safety Engineer to learn new and innovative ideas proposed by complimentary disciplines and how these ideas can be leveraged to enhance their own system safety efforts. The program is focused on the latest technical practices and procedures presented through technical papers and tutorials. Attendance at RAMS provides ISSS members the opportunity to learn new techniques, as well as new perspectives and networking/communication opportunities resulting in overall improvements to the design, production and operation of safer products.
