Please contact Professor Warren Roberts at wroberts@riohondo.edu for inquiries about waivers needed for prerequisites and corequisites or any other info that you would like to ask. The United States Geological Survey (USGS), National Association of Geoscience Teachers (NAGT), and the GIS Certification Institute (GISCI) are collaborating to place top notch students into internships with the USGS in their GIS Summer Intern Program. To be considered as a nominee for this program, you need to at least sign up at gisci.org and begin your portfolio. This program provides opportunities for genuinely talented students, even in their early years of education. Please consider visiting the GISCI FAQ page. With location as a service, cloud computing, 3D modeling and other trends, Geographic Information Systems (GIS) technologies are becoming more prevalent in everyday life. The GIS industry is growing and becoming more important than ever before. Our GIS and Geospatial Technology Programs are created in partnership with the UCLA Department of Geography, recognized internationally as a leader in research and education. Our programs are fully online, designed for entry-level to experienced professionals as well as students. They provide hands-on practical training involving real-world geospatial data and the most relevant, state-of-the-art tools and techniques in GIS. Our programs provide applicable experience in GIS, spatial analysis, GIS programming and more. Train on the latest versions of Esri’s ArcGIS, QGIS and others. Courses offered every quarter. We offer the following programs –
Registration and Additional InformationJoin our Free Information SessionsOn behalf of the GIS Certification Institute (and our friends from SoCal URISA next door), we would especially like to thank everyone who stopped by our booths. We highly encourage everyone to visit our sites. We did pass out some copies of a new GIS crossword puzzle, and, as promised, here’s the key. The puzzles are not anyone’s official publication. It’s just an amusing way of expanding our collective knowledge of GIS. Thank you for joining us for GIS Day 2018! We had 50 booths and 13 guest speakers, not to mention an impressive map gallery and many great sponsors. Our heartfelt thanks to all our speakers, (especially to Ron Galperin, Controller at LA City and our keynote speaker, Devra Schwartz of the LA Homeland Security Advisory Council), to all our sponsors, and booth and map gallery participants for helping to make LA County’s GIS Day event a true celebration of all things geospatial and GIS-related. This event would not be possible without you! In the coming days, we will be posting more presentations and pictures from GIS Day 2018 on this website: http://egis3.lacounty.gov/eGIS/gisday/. Please be sure to check back and share our event with others. We have some presentations available now – click here. We also have some pictures up, but more to follow – click here for those. Lastly, to improve future LA County GIS Day events, we’d greatly appreciate your feedback on your overall experience as a participant. Please take our short survey and let us know what you think! We hope to see you all at next year’s GIS Day, and many thanks again for helping to make GIS Day 2018 a wonderful time.
Thank you, – The Los Angeles County GIS Day 2018 Committee
