Hello Everyone (apologies for cross-postings!),
Last Spring, at the VT Geospatial Forum, we had a couple of general sessions on this topic. A lively discussion and sharing of ideas and experiences led me to the conclusion that perhaps we could also include this topic in our webinar lineup
this winter!
I am hoping to do 3 webinars within this general topic:
GIS career tips for young professionals
Certifications – which ones and why?
Vermont’s new GIS career ladder – this one is tentatively planned for some time in February
I would love to have a panel of presenters for each of the other topics - so this is your opportunity to speak up and volunteer!
Are you an employer with a lot of experience hiring recent students or new/young professionals?
Are you an academic preparing students and new/young professionals for real jobs?
Are you a new/young professional with recent experience navigating the job application process?
Do you have a variety of certifications and opinions about which are helpful or well-regarded?
I would like to offer these in January, February, or March, so please let me know if you are interested in being a presenter (it is convenient and easy – you just need a computer in a quiet room for an hour or so), or if you would like
to suggest someone else as a presenter.
Check out the notes from the general session and unconference on this topic posted at our event archive page: http://vcgi.vermont.gov/events/archive#rt
Thanks!
Leslie
